Easily the single greatest foodstuff humanity has to offer. Every time I eat it, no matter what restaraunt, it's just good. Eating General Tso's Chicken is a profound existential journey that will clear your nostrils and your mind. You must open your heart and your mouth to this amazing delicacy. Just don't get any of the storebought stuff, it's always crap.

We have three Chinese places in easy driving distance and all of them make delicious General chicken, and all of them have freaking huge portions. The oil makes me a bit ill if I have too much at a time, but it makes for some amazing leftovers.

That chicken is like 90% of why they were able to finish that thing.

They owe General Tso everything.

I still don't know what they were talking about with "ideas".

I'm gonna assume they meant farts until proven otherwise.

The way I see it, the spiciness of the Tso clears up your nostrils, allowing more oxygen to get to your brain and therefore enabling you to get more ideas.

I love all chinese chicken, but my favorite is probably sesame or random spiy buffet chicken, if that counts.

My PM box is always open to anyone who wants to talk/vent.

Mmmmmm, General Tso's Chicken.

That shit is great, it's my favorite Chinese food when I go out, aside from egg rolls.

It's spicy? Aw, hell naw, I can't take spicy stuff too well.

Insert witty and clever quip here. My page, as the database hates my handle.

Oh god. General Tso's anything. Chicken just happens to be the most common food cooked that way. I've also had the privilege of trying General Tso's shrimp and General Tso's beef. Absolutely heavenly. Now all I need is to find a Chinese joint that serves General Tso's scallops.

A fistful of me.

I honestly didn't know there were other General Tso foods. General Tso's beef sounds like it would be amazing. General Tso was an honorable man.

I love this chicken. I usually get it at Safeway on my daily walk down there.
