    The Obsession with General Tso and his Chicken

    By Jennifer 8. Lee | January 6, 2010

    Francis Lam expounds on General Tso’s chicken on Salon.com, the poultry story that keeps on giving. He quotes “The Fortune Cookie Chronicles.” Fuchsia Dunlop also weighs in on how it got known as General Tso’s chicken when the original English name was “Chicken a la Viceroy.”

    I feel there is a cabal of General Tso’s chicken-obsessed people that emerges.

    Generaltso on Facebook is a kid named Devon Morton who just graduated from high school on Long Island.

    General Tso on Twitter is a mystery — someone who protects his tweets.

    Generaltsoschicken.com belongs to a squatter.

    And Generaltso.com points to a random law firm.
