    If you were in restaurant in China and asked for General Tso Chicken…..you would get the same uncomprehending look that you get if you order a chimichanga in Mexico

    I have had “General Tso’s Chicken” at “Chinese” buffet restaurants. I haven’t been to them yet; but, there are a Thai restaurant and a Chinese restaurant across the street from where I live and in the same block as Taco Bell.

    Unless you go to a restaurant in the USA that can prove it serves AUTHENTIC Mexican cuisine, most of the “Mexican” menu items are of the Tex-Mex type and are really just Mexican-American foods.

    Chili is a Tex-Mex concoction. If you don’t make it the way they make it in Texas, it’s not really chili.

    “Tso” is the name of one of the letters of the Cherokee Syllabary, It can be pronounced as “Tso,” “Cho,” or “Jo.”

    I don’t know if they still have them; but, you could order a “drunkard” at a Taco Mayo. “Drunkard” in Spanish is “borracho.”

    The employees at each of the Taco Mayo stores in Tulsa knew what I meant when I asked them, “Do you serve drunks.”

    They said, “Yes, we do; but, we call them ‘borrachos’.”

    There was a running gag on “The Beverly Hillbillies” about “General Peritonitis” which was an illness that one of J.D.Clampett’s English relatives had.

    But, Daisy Mae “Granny” Moses, Jed’s mother-in-law,” who claimed to be a “doctor” had never heard of it and she didn’t know that it was an ailment.

    Wow, I had to look up what General Tso’s chicken was. It’s definitely an East Coast thing because I’ve never seen it out in California. The research I’ve done, though, seems to indicate that it’s a lot like the orange chicken you see at some of the Szechwan places.
