This book explores the transformation of Chinese food in the U.S. after 1965. It considers the symbolic meanings and cultural functions of Chinese food in America – how Chinese food reflected the racial relation between the Chinese community and the mainstream white society, and how Chinese food shaped the cultural lives of Americans.
