American vs. Chinese Food SMACKDOWN! Who Wins? You Decide!

Real authentic Chinese food can range from amazingly delicious to downright weird. Whenever I'm at a Chinese dinner or banquet, there will be some amazing dishes and there will always be a couple of weird unpalatable dishes that are supposed to be "good for your health"... as the Chinese also believe in the concept of Food is Medicine.

People think Fortune cookie is a Chinese thing but it was invented in American. Never seen a fortune cookie in China.

In term of Purchasing Power Parity GDP, China is about twice the size of the US. Although the Exchange Rate based GDP, US > China, 25 T$ : 17 T$

Love the way you put this video together. Very smooth.

Wow that Chinese style Nasi Campur (Mixed Rice) in your university canteen looks tasty 👍👍👍.

Great video!!! I love McDonald's in China. Canteens in Schools here in China are pretty decent, cheap clean and tasty as the food is for Students and Teachers. That fortune cookie told the truth hahaha.

Your university food looks so good!!!

that's the reality in NYC vs China

A great video!

3:51 dude that's insane 18$ for panda express. You can get that with more quantity for 8-9$ dollar NYC Chinatown (2-3 items lunch boxes) Chinese restaurants.

//*The Chinese food you eat in China has different prices in different cities. First-tier cities must be very expensive.

Very interesting video for me on which I have some thoughts then I’d like to add a 3rd country, Saudi Arabia where I taught English for many years. I’m not a big McD frequenter other than the rare fish sandwich, salad or coffee. Something I missed in general in the video was the access to fish; I tend to eat lots of fish and veggies, not beef, poultry or pork so the Smoke Barbecue offering really appealed to me except for the meat. I get Chinese fried rice and veggies on occasion here in the States. I’m sure I could find some things at the Canteen to eat on a regular basis, especially the rice and veggies. All that campus canteen food for around $3 is hard to beat, yet in the cafeteria on the compound where I stayed in Saudi we were offered 3 all one could eat meals a day for free. There were usually 2 or 3 main meals for each day.They had 2 cafeterias, one for Americans and one for non Americans though one could eat in either. Most of the food was cooked by Filipinos and Indians. There was also a small snack bar with typical American snack bar food for a reasonable price. At that time I was eating meat and I absolutely loved the Indian cooks’ curry chicken and rice. Man, that stuff was spicy. Finally, while walking recently in an empty mall here in MIchigan on a cold day, a woman asked if I could give her some money. I gave her $2. Later when I left the mall I saw her sitting outside as she had been kicked out of the mall by security for soliciting money. She asked if I could give her a ride not far away. I took her to our agreed location at which point she started asking me to take her to a place much farther away and she asked me for more money. When I would do neither, copping an attitude she got defiant and would not exit my car. I finally got across to her that yes, she sure as heck would be getting out of my car. I added that I had given her $2, a ride and she hadn’t even said thank you for either. As for Saudi food, it’s very much like Middle Eastern food and I like it a lot. Even here near, Michigan Middle Eastern Food is very popular nowadays. In fact, when I returned from Saudi and found Americans eating tons of humus I was surprised. If Saudis eat traditional style it’s only with the right hand, but of course many use knives and forks, etc.

I'm not going to comment about American food vs. Chinese food. Meat-wise, I prefer our Southern grill. Chinese make better noodles for sure. What I'm really sure is the following: Chinese McDonald's > American McDonald's.

next we need an american fast food in china vs american fast food in US... xD

It’s great to see you on the ground factual experience of China. Of the good, the bad, the ugly, we get daily doses of the bad and the ugly of China. May I suggest that you just bring us only the good of your China experience.

I love how China McDonald's has congee 😄😄

Bet you don't miss that

Why a Chinese would eat factory fast food in China is a mystery.

Looks so good!! Put on a Kg just looking!😂

The last time I was at McDonald’s In LA, it cost me $11 bucks for a meal
