she's been eating chinese since she was born, you have to introduce her to american food, like something typically american, like pizza hut or one of the billion fat food chains, like Burger King, or mexican-american food like Taco Bell.

Take her out for a nice meal at a good, local restaurant. Or cook for her at home. She may be tired from traveling. There will be plenty of time for fast food in the years to come.
