Burger king was playing with the idea of delivery. But for fucks sake, imagine how fat majority of the American population would get if they could have their burgers delivered to the door.

Burger king sucks ass btw.

I've experienced the 'budget' end of Chinese food and I can't say I'm much of a fan of it, sure its sort of healthy but mostly tasteless and in some cases, awful.

lol, aside from food here in the US, most of the staple foods around the world are relatively bland.

I really like this chinese place in vancouver,BC, Canada best chinese food i've ever had. Real chinese food imo is not panda express type shit. Its seafood and meats prepared with some spice and not in a gooey sticky sauce thing.

Best Chinese I had was in a random street somewhere in London. My ex and I got looks when we went in because we were the only westerners!

Was casually posh and amazingly good. No sticky sweet as fuck sauces, ace soup to start and then a subtle main course. Was very calm, reserved and pleasant.

Thats because a lot of US food is laced with a ton of salts, fats and sugars in a lot of cases... which at least make it taste like salt, fat, sugar and whatever an early cardiac arrest feels like.

But that is beside the point, who the hell goes to the trouble of getting a meal you're not cooking, which is bland?
Heck no, if I'm getting dressed up and out to a restaurant for dinner I WANT GOOD FOOD, not the plain rice, flat bread and water special!

If you are getting dressed up to go out and getting bland food, you are an idiot. You better get a really delicious meal if you are getting dressed up.

I want a delicious meal no matter how I'm dressed up

Even so, if you're spending $30 on take away 'westernised' chinese food, then of course its going to be different than the average meal in china would cost, which is about $3 from memory and I've had the equivalent meal here for about $8 from a couple of restaurants that do it. Likewise you spend your $10 in China to get an expensive dish, it'll still be roughly the same as the $30 ones you get in your country.

I have NEVER spent $30 on take-out chinese food. I have only spent that at a sit down type asian restaurant. I wouldn't spend more than $5 or so for a good take-out from some mom and pop restaurant.

I could definitely use some chinese take-out right now. Got the drunk-munchies like a muthafucka. General Tso, you commie bastard, come to my house!

WOW!!!! You get Chinese food uber cheap there!!!

A �15 or $30 take out is fairly normal. Or $20 for post night club one, served with a free Chinese lesson you never remember.

You know those 3 portion polystyrene boxes? The ones with 1 large part and 2 small ones? Well imagine that full to where it is molded to the shape of the TOP half with food. That costs me $5 at this place I fucking LOVE in Sacramento. MMMMMMMMMMMMM
