Back in the old days when the concept of eating Chinese food was new in America, the popular dish was chop suey. It was considered exotic, mysterious and an alternative to the standard American food.
These days, nobody eats chop suey. If you went up to some friends and say hey lets go out for chop suey, you would sound like someone from the 1950s and you might as well be wearing a bow tie which has also declined too.
It's an old forgotten dish of the past that may never come back probably because it was never really that good anyway. But compared to the American bland food of the old era, chop suey was a something that pointed to a new direction of future food.
