Chinese food

I cooked again today. Again... sort of. But yeah. Sweet and Sour pork. Quite good. It's oriental, so it smelled a little.. off when I was cooking it, but it turned out very nice. But man, it's a lot less healthy than my chicken monterey. Let's say we used basically a whole thing of veg. oil, used the meat basically exactly as it came, fat and all, and.. wait for it... a half cup of sugar.

Damn, that was a lot of sugar.

So, it wasn't 'healthy.' But it's better for you than mcdonalds. It's got to be. Right? I mean, it's got carrots in it.

My mom said it was the best oriental food she's ever had.. but that's not that high a compliment, coming from her, because chinese is basically at the bottom of her list, along with indian and cheese.

Cooking is fun. Now I'm just tired. But I have yet to do Chemistry and Geometry homework. Specifically chem. I can do Geometry in resource tomorrow, if it comes to that.

Sigh.

Actually, they've done studies that alot of "chinses food" (you know the kind you get in a little container)is actually really bad for you. Like a thing of brocolli and chicken could have up to 1100 calories.
