Just a few days ago Jim Deligatti, the inventor of the Big Mac, passed away in Pittsburgh at age 98.

Coincidence???

Most surprising revelation to me was that there actually WAS a General Tso.

Since things like this happen in threes, there must be a lot of people who invented some other famous food that are very worried.

General Tso had great respect and a position in the Obama Administration.

Schezuan orange peel chicken for me, please. With sweet iced tea and keep it coming, that stuff is hot.

Tso Tsung-t’ang even has his own Wikipedia article.

When you have a couple hours to kill watch The Search For General Tso.

A quirky little documentary about the General's chicken. Seems most Chinese interviewed know who he was, but have never heard of his chicken. I watched it on Netflix.

From Wikipedia:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Tso%27s_chicken

The dish is named after Zuo Zongtang (formerly romanized Tso Tsung-t’ang), a Qing dynasty statesman and military leader, although there is no recorded connection to him nor is the dish known in Hunan, Zuo’s home province

If people all over the world are eating General Tso’s chicken, what’s the general eating?

This is good stuff, just ask anyone waddling out of the All You Can Eat China Buffet.

I know of at least two Big Macs.
