If fact, you could say egg rolls, tacos and pizza are as American as hamburgers, hot dogs and apple pie.
No kidding. Try asking for nachos some time in Mexico. "No comprende."
I had a "yen" for an old-fashioned "ethnic" home food of the 1950s earlier this year and was pleasantly surprised when I made it that it was still good and tasted the same. My dad was the cook in our house and he made "egg foo yungs" for dinner sometimes.
They were just little omelets with canned bean sprouts in them and green onions, but smothered in this wonderful brown sauce made from the pan debris from browning the omelets, plus soy sauce and cornstarch. Ha, I tried making them with fresh mung bean sprouts and found that I had to parboil them first to get that "canned" taste and mouth feel. But, yum, they were good.
