That’s France, isn’t it?

Deodorant works the same way, doesn’t it? It doesn’t actually get rid of the BO. Just distracts you from it.
Anti-perspirant actually prevents the BO by preventing sweat in the first place, but in Taiwan it doesn’t last long.
Arm and hammer. Available at Costco and other places. Doesn’t ruin your clothes. Doesn’t have a strong smell.

Thanks, I’ll give it a try. Do you recall which specific other places sell it? I don’t have a Costco membership.
Maybe just online apart from Costco. Momo, Iherb etc.
here is an example.

If she’s hot she doesn’t need to pull it off , just be an IG model.
Chinese people’s public manner certainly can be rough and not all that polite but they still have the hospitable culture as Taiwan does. They can be just as friendly as Taiwanese too.
Plenty of nice people there too… you just gotta know who is trying to scam you and who isn’t.
No doubt. I have to ride the MRT in the morning when its all crowded. Certain people stink and are seemingly unaware of it. Probably because people like hongkonger keep telling them that asian people have no BO.

I had this problem before but last year switched to salt stick deodorant. It is amazing and I can’t understand why it isn’t the default option we teach kids about.
Do you have a link to the product? Or where to purchase?
That’s probably just me you’re smelling.

You need to change your diet too. Specifically eat less cheese.
I’m lactose intolerant so cheese isn’t the problem. My diet mostly consists of Korean BBQ, Yakiniku, and hotpot. Maybe I should eat more fruits and vegetables.
In Kaohsiung I haven’t found the big ones, but Big King on Jianguo Rd sells these small ones (and the A&H someone recommended above too) on the 2nd floor.

I disagree with this based on personal experience.
Some Taiwanese have mixed race ancestors so yeah it’s not going to be 100%.
I think it’s something like 99% of Koreans don’t have the genes for BO, and like 90% of Taiwanese or Southern Han Chinese in general.
So in a crowded train car in Taiwan with 50 people, 5 of them are going to stink.
For me, the smell journey here carry on throughout the day. In morning , in the MRT, smell of some people who just believe in no shower in morning. Then when i come to work, the smell of coffee from mouth of my coworkers. Maybe i am a weird one here but i really dislike that cofee smell

I hate it too.
I don’t mind coffee but bad breath is rampant here.

Yes, I understand that (and think that is just retarded outside of work purposes…breeding narcissism )
However, that’s not what I was saying. I was asking if having more people follow you is more dangerous for you, in that situation of possible turning someone down (especially the demographics that use something.like Instagram, glass hearted they can be hehe). stalking here isnt all that uncommon. Nor is fraud. Seems better to have less followers. It makes sense for business, but that’s about it. we have accounts for our brands as well, but I’ll be damned if anything.personal goes on them.
However, if I had a foot fetish AND a food fetish, that’s the place to be!
