Blurtmusic Holiday : National Chop Suey Day

If I was a Dictator, Chop Suey day would be the biggest Holiday for us here on Blurt.

Blurt is a lot like Chop Suey … It is a very nice mix of everything.

The Good and the bad.

It’s a Mash up … of often opposing Cultures. But it’s fun ! Self deprecating, irreverent, laughing at itself, … sometimes a little Offensive but harmless, a little politically incorrect maybe.

Like when you just Blurt something out without much thought.

To celebrate our beautiful Life on Blurt we would all eat Chop Suey Every year on August 29.

Growing up in Northern Ontario we would visit the Purple Lantern Chinese Restaurant and my dad would always order us Chop Suey, Spring rolls and Chicken balls…

Chop Suey seemed to be a Mix of Everything.

It was a little strange at first but we learned to like it. A lot.

If I was a Dictator This would be the biggest Holiday for us here on Blurt.

Here is a wonderful song all about Chop Suey.

National Chop Suey Day on August 29 is dedicated to this delicious and amazing American-Chinese dish.

Made with an assortment of ingredients like vegetables, meat, and eggs, chop suey is served with rice or noodles. Many Americans have grown up eating it and enjoy it well into their adulthood too.

Because of globalization, chop suey is now enjoyed all over the world.

There may be variations in the recipe here and there, but the element of scrumptiousness remains constant.

Much like the hundreds of various chop suey recipes out there, there are several origin stories about it too. From transcontinental roads to immigrants in a new country to royal courthouses, chop suey’s origin stories do take one on quite the ride….

HISTORY OF NATIONAL CHOP SUEY DAY

National Chop Suey Day celebrates the iconic dish that has several origin stories to its name. E. N. Anderson, a historical scholar on Chinese food, states that chop suey may have its origins in the county of Taishan in the Guangdong province of China. Known as ‘tsap seui,’ which translates to ‘miscellaneous pieces,’ chop suey may have come to America through the earliest Chinese immigrants.

It was in the 1840s when gold was discovered in California, that many immigrants, a large number of which consisted of Chinese people, came to the United States to seek their fortunes. After a hard day’s work of digging for gold, the Chinese immigrants, mostly men who had come to the country with little to their names, chose chop suey to satisfy their hunger as the dish was cheap and filling. From there on, the dish became popular with the rest of the public.
