China is a vast country with various different cultures. As such, there is not one food that everyone in China eats. Contrary to popular belief, the Chinese food that people get in North America (ex. crab rangoon, General Tso's chicken, Mongolian beef, etc) are not actually authentic Chinese, but food cooked by Chinese immigrant families intended to cater to Western palates.

There are four major cuisines of China:

Cantonese

Shandong

Szechwan

Huaiyang

Each of them have their own unique style of cooking.

Contrary to popular belief, dog and cat meat are not eaten very commonly, and the practise is mainly restricted to certain regions of China. The most eaten meat in China is pork. Rice is a staple food in much of China, though it was traditionally not eaten in the far northern parts of China.

There's no fun in playing it safe. Why not try something a little unhinged?
