      french fries that’s not true about everyone fat in America. I’m saying everything in China is cheap! Even when you buy rice or snacks or buns from outside, it’s just cheap and not expensive at all compared to the U.S.

    the first one: Shaobing a type of flatbread with various filling.

      yeah, I cannot find any good Shaobing in North American, as most Chinese foods here are from Southern China where they mainly eat rice and cook bread so badly, so I bought a lot of Indian and Middle East flat bread.
