What Makes It a Great Healthy Chinese Food Takeout Option?
Recent dietary research has revealed that most takeaway foods are not nutritionally well-balanced, that they are always high in fat, salt, or calorie content but low in vegetables and whole grains. Evidence suggests that regular takeaway dieting has been associated with a poor quality of diet unless healthy options are selected.
Peter Chang’s approach is different – using locally sourced Amish produce and fresh ingredients in many dishes helps bring color, nutrients, and flavor to every plate.
