And No, We Don’t Have Kung Pao Panda
The Chinese government is afraid people won’t want to eat the food during the Olympics. Gee, just because the names of some popular dishes translate as “husband and wife’s lung slice”, “bean curd made by a pock-marked woman,” and “chicken without sexual life”? To be safe, they’ve been officially renamed beef and ox tripe in chili sauce, Mapo tofu, and steamed pullet. How boring. You’ll even be able to get kung pao chicken, a dish whose name they never heard before over there. General Tso must be rolling over in his grave.
