A gambler from Hong Kong named Louie.
He was dumb and quite a bit screwy.
In a gambling pad,
he lost all he had.
Today, he can’t afford chop suey.
Who says a limerick has to be Irish?
I met a strange young gal in St. Louis
Her favorite Chinese food was chop suey
This gal got her kicks
Twirling her chopsticks
I finally said, “too much kung phooey.”

A world full of syllables
Is so highly tillable;
they ebulliently buoy,
never leading to ennui.
When you’ve got Hong Kong Phooey
with a bowl of chop suey
and a glass of Drambuie,
what else do you need?
Or a wolf man named Gershon
with a camo tutu on
and he’s traipsing ‘cross your lawn,
asking more is just greed.

Kitty’s Restaurant
By Elton Camp
As a name for a Chinese place to eat,
“Kitty’s Chop Suey” can sure be beat
If, perchance, it’s the owner’s name
I wouldn’t view it quite the same
As an Asian name it doesn’t ring true
Much more likely would be Wong Sue
Thus, to go to this restaurant to eat
Makes one wonder about the meat
A coincidence, or could it be true
That the meat once used to mew?
It is as American as crackers and cheese.
So many people believe it is Chinese.
Cook meat or shrimp in a wok that is very nice.
Serve it with lots of veggies and white rice.
If you travel to places such as Shanghai or Beijing,
most of the people living there never heard of such a thing
A Chinese restaurant is the only place you will see
this famous dish of great popularity.
You can find it on a menu in either column A or column B
This item is known to all as “Chop Suey”
