From Jargon File (4.2.0, 31 JAN 2000) [jargon]:
oriental food n.   Hackers display an intense tropism towards    oriental cuisine, especially Chinese, and especially of the spicier    varieties such as Szechuan and Hunan.   This phenomenon (which has    also been observed in subcultures that overlap heavily with    hackerdom, most notably science-fiction fandom) has never been    satisfactorily explained, but is sufficiently intense that one can    assume the target of a hackish dinner expedition to be the best    local Chinese place and be right at least three times out of four.    See also {ravs}, {great-wall}, {stir-fried random}, {laser chicken},    {Yu-Shiang Whole Fish}.   Thai, Indian, Korean, and Vietnamese    cuisines are also quite popular.
