Who invented General Tso chicken, fortune cookies, and more

If you love Chinese food you must see this video. It is a funny, informative, fascinating video by the orgins of Chinese food. I am going to squeeze in a visit to my local "China Buffet" now.

Jennifer 8. Lee hunts for General Tso Video on TED.com: "Reporter Jennifer 8. Lee talks about her hunt for the origins of familiar Chinese-American dishes -- exploring the hidden spots where these two cultures have (so tastily) combined to form a new cuisine."
