While eating dinner at the local street-side live shrimp vendor next to the brothel and gangster hang out, we went to grab some drinks at the local 7-11 … all I can say, kids, is don’t try this at home. Sweet beer-flavoured tea is positively disgusting.
Beer Flavor Green Tea – Avoid!
I had a day wandering the streets in the rain last weekend, and it was well worth checking out some of the nooks and crannies of Taipei that I have not returned to in a while. It has been seriously pissing it down for months now (without much exaggeration) with a seemingly daily shower timed to coincide with leaving the office. Its really getting a bit boring and predictable!

It has been a little while I posted anything outside of the Taipei Times, so that must mean that it must be time for … Gratuitous funny packaging shot!
This is for Taiwanese brand ‘Boring Pie’ spicy rice crackers, which was hilariously funny, right up until someone pointed out the Chinese name ‘無聊派’ means the same thing! Hilarity ensued.
“Digging into boring pie
Getting out of boring time”
The Taiwanese do see eating more as entertainment, and with packaging like this, who can blame them?!
Boring Pie
Please whoever checks English – never ever check this packaging.
