My date poured Russian dressing on his chinese food

[Anonymous]

I have been seeing someone really wonderful for a couple of months. We got Chinese takeout tonight. And he produced a bottle of Russian dressing and POURED IT ON HIS CHICKEN.

I am..aghast...to the point that I am posting on DCUM from the bathroom. WTF!!!!!!! I asked him about it and he was like, don't knock it until you have tried it!!
It was General Tsao. Um...I am weirded out but also laughing??!

That is really funny.

But honestly? I think it is great that he knows his own mind/tastes and is comfortable being himself around you. Don't hold it against him! We all have our quirks, and this is as benign as it gets.

You were eating General Tso. I don’t think you have any room to complain.

[Anonymous]

Well…. Did you try it???

[Anonymous]

I’m intrigued and want to try this now.

Could be a good thing - obviously not a picky eater!

Have you ever had the salad dressing at a Japanese restaurant? There is a sauce that is sometimes put in Chinese or Japanese American food that is similar to Russian dressing

“His” Chinese food. MYOB. He’s not an extension of you.

This is almost literally a red flag.

First of all, you’re not eating real Chinese food if you’re having General Tso. He poured dressing on what is essentially invented American fusion. Does that make you feel better?
