The article starts off by talking about how chinese food in the US is a cuisine of its own at this point. Given that, why are we worrying about how traditionally non-chinese items are featured? It's not uncommon for chinese buffets in the northeast to have things like french fries on it.
Besides, many Americans aren't too bright and have trouble discerning their asians.
