How fat-ting is Chinese food ?

Question

I'm asking about Gen. Tso's Chicken or Sesame Chicken or Chicken Lo-Mein ? because these are the thing my dauther and i like,

Answer 1

Deep-fried dishes like sweet and sour chicken, sesame chicken and my favorite, General Tso's, can pack more than 1000 calories and about 70 grams of fat!

I think I'll order the steamed chicken & veggies....

Answer 2

Gen Tso chicken, and seasme chicken are medium (fattening wise) because it is deep-fried you can ask them to not deepfry it or have the sause on the side. Chicken lomein is not very fattening.

Answer 3

i work in a chinese takeaway and the only fattening thing i see in our food is a hell of a lot of oil. but the food isnt in the wok for longs so maybe its not so bad. everything else seems fine. hope this helps maybe you could ask to have your food cooked a certain way

Answer 4

All food is fattening but there are over 17 different verisions of vhindr food and they all have dfferent fat content

Answer 5

there really not bad...just high in sodium and carbs and those in excess can cause problems...you could always make it at home and use low sodium sauce and use brown rice instead of white rice...still good..less expensive and more healthy! and be sure to add those vegatables! and steer clear of the ones that deep fried meat in them.
