It's the Little Things...

In Hong Kong, Allison said the place was like Chinatown in Toronto, writ large.

Taiwan, on the other hand, was more different to her. It was all in the little things:



Whereas we might have dandelions or purple loosestrife growing in the neglected ditches alongside roads or barren dirt around vacant lots, in Taiwan, they have... banana trees. O.O



Lay's potato chips. You can see the translated flavor on the bag, "Original". The Chinese translation above it is much more descriptive. It says, "American classic original flavor". In Taiwan, just being American is a selling point. :)



No selling points needed here. :)

Allison said what's interesting is that, even if the bottles were completely unlabeled, she'd still know what it was. How's that for global marketing?
