Mein gon or informally referred to as Crunchy noodles or Crunchy chow mein are dried biscuits used in American Chinese cuisine.
[edit] American Chinese cuisine
In American Chinese cuisine, the biscuits are generally sprinkled into chicken chow mein, and then served together. Despite the Chinese name referring to it as a noodle, it is not actually classified as a form of Chinese noodle.
It can also be crumbled and sprinkled onto American Chinese salad dishes, such as Chinese chicken salad, in a manner similar to croutons. Crunchy fried chow mein noodles are often served with duck sauce and Chinese hot mustard as an appetizer in American Chinese restaurants.
