y’know, there are other ways to get rid of your constipation
Yes, but Taco Bell tastes better.
wait, what?
food scandal/fecal transplant!
Sidewalks minus the potted plants, signs, scooters, and massive Chunghua telecom box in the middle of it.

In China there was a guy whose baozi were especially popular–and this at a time when meat was hard to come by. Turns out his brother was an undertaker…
And the angry watch dogs that are leashed on a chain that’s too slack so you have to walk on the street in order to avoid getting mauled. At least that’s near my home…

Basic Needs and Wants
- More options for deodorant brands
- Larger (longer) clothing sizes
- Affordable “Western” baking ingredients
- More variety in candy bars (milky way, three musketeers, mars bars, etc etc)
- Variety in deli meats and affordable (not just ham…all I ever see here is ham, ham, ham and more ham)
- More authentic western bread (not the soft sugary, marshmallow like 7-11 crap bread or bread with stuff stuffed inside just for the hell of it)
- Real honest to goodness Dansih pastries and donuts. Not asian-afied donut crap like Mr. Donut or pure sugar crap like Krispy Kreme. I am talking mom and pop donut shop style apple fritters, old fashioned glazed, maple bars, turn overs, etc etc.

Poya has been stocking a greater variety lately, it’s worth a look.
+1!!!
Also +1!!!
I think @morran01 might. 
Yes please!
As much as I would love that, there’s no way it’s happening. Several States in the US don’t even have a chance at that one.
So sad the burrito bar in Zhongli closed!! 
I would settle for just one really good deli sandwich type of place. I just really want to eat a reuben or turkey club every now and then.

Every time I go back to Colorado, I absolutely make sure I get my Hop-Sing!! I miss all the great delis in Fort Collins.

You wanna make money? Guarantor-free services. ESPECIALLY financial. I dont know why I am wasting my money giving it to Taiwanese landlords to afford their second, third, fourth house when I AM LITERALLY able to afford one myself in a mortgage.
I even set up a business. But once they see my Big Beautiful Italian™ nose, I get nothing and have to compete under a disadvantaged climate. How can I create jobs in this situation?

Have you tried the ham and cheese (request a side salad) at Avenue in Taipei City? It’s off the charts!
Guy
Again…ham.
Ham or pepper beef is about all you can find here.

Costco has a really good hot Hungarian salami. Goes great with their Tillamook extra sharp cheddar on a Ritz cracker!

Yeah, I think small white cartoon doggie needs to get out more, Jason’s has 5 or 6 different kinds of salami and prosciut etc.
No pastrami, though.
In this weather? In this economy?

Now you’ve got me craving a pastrami and swiss on rye with some spicy mustard!
On a side note, I think Tommy had an astute observation the other day…
