    It was pretty good (although Martin Yen is a one man team), but it's kinda weird that Ashley Moore wasn't allowed on camera, since it's her recipe. Kinda racist. I guess beautiful redheads aren't allowed to make Chinese food anymore. Overall, I'll take it! It was a good video and I'm obsessed with learning how to make American style Chinese food, circa 1985. Panda Express deleted an entire segment of Americana, and I'm pissed about it.

    The sneeze when you got a whiff of the cooking peppers. I did that once making a stir fry with fresh habanero peppers. I just put the peppers in the pan and within about 20 seconds the dog goes flying by me out the doggy door I was wondering what was up then I get hit by the pepper steam. I had to pull the pan off the heat and run outside to recover my eyes and breathing. I just pepper bombed the whole kitchen it was intense. The dog's reaction was much quicker than mine she got out in time I had to suffer a little. I'm gonna try this with venison.

    Love Hunger Pangs since I found it a couple days ago! Speaking of American Chinese food though. I grew up on 2 foods at Chinese restaurants that you can’t find now. The first were “Egg Rolls” that actually had layers of fried egg in the shell and were bigger - now people call Spring Rolls Egg Rolls and they aren’t the same. The second was Chow Mein that didn’t have noodles in it. It was full of very tender vegetables stir fried with matchsticks of whatever meat was in the title, and served on fried noodles that were very puffed up and didn’t break your teeth like the store bought packs. Those would be great programs too.
