That's because there is virtually no real Chinese food in the US. My aunt and uncle just got back from living in China for two years (my uncle works for the department of agriculture) and they asked them why they don't serve actual Chinese food in the US. They said they don't serve actual Chinese food in the US because they think the US pallet isn't sophisticated enough for it My aunt and uncle loved it tho. They said it's a lot better then the shit we have here. Who knows maybe they are right...but they didn't give us the opportunity to try real Chinese food so how can they expect us to know what it tastes like.

I like ethnic and I try anything once.

When I was in NYC we ate in Chinatown probably 3 -4 times over 4 or 5 days. Good food.
