Chinese veggie means more ways of making many tofu taste like meat. Most of the dishes posssess tons of msg.

I had a Chinese friend who was second generation American, i.e., her parents lived in China but moved here. She worked at a Chinese restaurant and told some horrific stories. My favorite was the time they were cooking an entire deer's head, fur and all. She had no idea why they were doing that but didn't have the guts to ask. Max Exter is right!

Heck, ordering vegetarian in many asian restaurants seems to just mean that you get more vegetables along with all of the regular good stuff (IE, meat). I don't think this is on purpose, so much as a translation/maybe cultural thing. What bothers me is when they (by which I mean anybody) are deceptive on purpose. Beef broth in MacDonalds fries, chicken broth to flavour my family style bean curd, and damnit if I didn't order my Siberian Tiger well done! This stuff tastes like piss.
