What is healthier?? Chinese food or Fast food

[Megamorph]

Anyone know if Chinese food (beef pepper steak) would be healthier than eating fast food?

Specify a fast food and I'll tell you.

I would think it's probably better for you than a Montana-sized value meal

 

[dquan97]

depends on which fast food you get and how they made the chinese food

MSG or OLESTRA?

Maybe a whopper and fries? What kind of fat content does beef pepper steak have? I know it's kinda fatty meat.

What's the nutritional content of dogs and cats so we can make a just comparison.

gotta be better for you than the whopper and fries

Mr. Chau's, Mr. Chau's, Mr Chau's chinese fast food.

Beef Pepper Steak in a "regular" lunch portion is probably better overall than a whopper meal..

MMM, Stewed Dog...

since chinese food has a much lower(if any) content of animal-by-products than most fast food (burgers, dogs,fries), chinese food is MUCH healthier.

They both will be close in the sodium catagory, but otherwise, Chinese should be fine if you don't load on too much soy sauce after.

That's too broad a comparison. It depends what you order at a FF place, and it depends upon the quality of the Chinese food, i.e., how committed the proprietor of the Chinese restaurant is to making a quality product.

In any case, it's probably best for you to skip the fries/McNuggets/onion rings at the fast food place, and skip the egg rolls, cheese wontons, and fried rice at the chinese place.

Take out "American Chinese" food is cooked with tallow...

 

[technogeeky]

The sauce served with beef steak is probably sugar-based.. not so good.

i've gotten chinese food glistening with grease. i think a baked potato and chili at wendy's is better for you than that.

Chinese is healthier. Fast food burgers contain cow lips and ass.

Not if you get the footlong meatball with swiss cheese it isn't:

In all fairness, fast-food chicken sandwiches probably have just as much cow lip and ass in them ;-)

cheap chinese contains the same. i certainly can't identify the parts of the animal.

Depends on the restaurant and how they cook it

Most chinese food you buy will be 'fast food' style...a lot of fatty sauces and crappy meat...better than a whopper/big mac, but not better than a grilled chicken sandwich.
