“I want to eat some Chinese food,” Bell said Wednesday. “My wife’s Chinese, so she’s going to tag along, but I also want to see what real Chinese food is like. Two, I thought it would be cool to play in China.”
First baseman Adrian Gonzalez, one of only two regulars scheduled to go to Beijing, raised a good point.
“Over there it’s not called Chinese food. It’s called food. Like when I go to Mexico, it’s not Mexican food anymore. It’s food.”
"I want to eat some Chinese food," Bell said Wednesday. "My wife's Chinese, so she's going to tag along, but if she were just some white chick I would totally leave her behind."
I wonder if he knows that Chinese food in China is nothing like Chinese food here. In many ways its much better, i.e. fresher, but its not lie going to Yang Chow. That'sfor sure.

Why would food in China be fresher than here?
