Also known as, the best fucking thing you will ever put in you mouth (dirty euphemisms withstanding.)

For those of you who didn’t grow up northern Chinese (represent!), jian bing guo zi this savory crepe thing that’s a staple of street foods there. Here’s a video on how it’s made. I think I just foodgasmed.

All throughout grade school, whenever I was asked the question, “what’s your favorite food?,” I always said “pizza,” when I felt the need to assimilate and conform, or “fried rice” when I was in the mood to “embrace my heritage.” However, all of that is a big fat stinkin’ lie. This is my favorite food ever. By far. Not even a question.

The sad thing is, I haven’t had a properly made jbgz since I visited China five years ago o__O. Last weekend, I went to a Chinese restaurant on the promise of this heavenly delicacy, however, I was so fucked over. The crepe was way too dry and thick, and there wasn’t enough sauce on the inside. Most upsetting, they copped out and used the fried Chinese breadsticks instead of fried wonton wrappers. Fuck that shit. No.

Why am I suddenly posting this now? Cuz I felt like it, and also cuz I’m going to China and Taiwan in this winter (omg!!), and this is probably what I’m looking forward to the most. If you think that’s ridiculous or sad, then you obviously have never tried one of these things.
