I feel your pain with americanized greek food.

A peice of me dies inside everytime a waitress offers me a “guy-row with yogurt dressing.”

Sewell: I’d rather be a banana than a Twinkie. Ms. Q is loath to be though of as having a cream filling. Eeeeww.

Plus, according to the UrbanDictionary, the term is a bit derogatory:

“Man, that Asian is supposed to be smart,what a twinkie.”

Granted the same can be said for a banana but at least it’s not an empty calorie.

I have eaten a chicken foot. Or maybe it was a duck foot. It may not be bad but WHY BOTHER? Plus, it’s A FOOT! With a TOENAIL!

I like the term “Twinkie” better than banana.

You shouldn’t knock the chicken feet until you try it. It isn’t too bad. I like it more for the texture as there isn’t much meat on the feet. Last time I was in China, I sampled a variety of exotic food including dog, mountain goat, horse, drunken live shrimp and scorpions. In some cases, the way the meat is cooked, you would have thought you were eating beef. There is a stigma of consuming certain foods…

And since I’m in NY right now, I think I’m going to have a nice slice of NY pizza now.. Yummm…

dietrologia: It took me a few beats to figure it out what my being a banana meant. I managed to figure it out because Oreos came to mind. The things people come up with, huh?
