Why Chinese hate kung pao chicken and foreigners love it
It’s no secret that Chinese would rather eat cartilage, bones, skin, bowels or any other inedible bit of an animal, rather than a fleshy piece of meat.
According to Zhao, Chinese are reluctant to eat the meaty chicken breast, which is the main ingredient of kung pao chicken. Outside of China, however, breast meat is among the most requested and expensive part of a chicken. This helps explain the success of kung pao chicken among foreigners.
