“Not Too Sweet” or Too Sweet to Fail? Sugar’s evolving role in Asian cuisine has many fans—and just as many haters.

I don’t like Thai cuisine, at least the version we get around here, because it’s too sugary.

I think this hits the nail on the head. I also find Asian food in the western world too sugary, especially at the more hip and happening places. That is also the reason why I don’t eat Asian food a lot outside of Asia.
