It depends how much you eat and what kind of ingredients they put in your Chinese food. If you eat healthy Chinese food, like wonton soup, assorted fried vegetables, steamed fish and steamed rice, the fibre you have taken would make your digestive system work longer. Pizza is full of cheese, ham or processed meat which take more time to digest.
We do not put MSG in food when we cook at home and many famous Chinese restaurants in Hong Kong do not put MSG in their food too.

The same thing happens to me. It's because all of the sour ingredients dissolves the food faster and starts irritating your digestive system. It's still delicious though!

Pizza is all bread and cheese, Chinese food is just a load of grease.

Me too. It is loaded with carbs and starches. They digest quickly.

Bacause all the MSG, salt and grease eats away at your insides.
