Default Orange Chicken anyone?

I was wondering if any of you post-op's can eat orange chicken or is it too sweet? This was my favorite food before and would like to have it on occasion, but I am afraid to try it.

I eat it and I love it. All though orange chicken is supposed to be spicey not sweet. If it's sweet and sour orange chicken then be cautious, and try it at home. I can eat it from Panda Express with NO problems!

I just love orange chicken, all 4 bites of it. I have never had a problem. My current love is 4 ingredient kung pao. It is shrimp, beef, pork & chicken in a hot and spicy peanut sauce. Yummmmmm, It lasts me 3-4 days to eat it.

I eat orange chicken, kung pao chicken, or beef, black pepper chicken or beef. I never have a problem. The only problem is the amount I waste.

La China in La Mesa/Fletcher Hills. I get it for lunch and eat it for 3 days. It's like only $4.50 for it and a boat load of rice. Mmmmmmmmm

Great!! That is such great news to hear that I can eat it again. My mom had thought that the sauce on it would be too sugary from the Jade Express here in Phoenix. I'm gonna try it tonight, at home of course so the toilet is near.
