Spicy Oyster Omelet Flavor Chips (Brand Unkown)















Origin - Taiwan
Rating - Not So Good
Ignore ol' Yankee Joe Potato, he's not your friend. Neither are these chips. They have a sour fishy taste but are a little zesty as well. I'm not a fan. The idea was good but the taste never comes together to produce anything worthwhile. Not disgusting but not good. They stink as well. Oh I didn't mention the smell? Think fish market on a hot day, that and the smell they stick into hot dogs. Even still, I have a strange desire to eat them with dill pickle dip...how awful! I'm a bad person.

Coconut Jelly - Lychee Flavour











Origin - Taiwan

Rating - Good

This Lychee Flavor Coconut Jelly from Taiwan. I picked this up at Wal-Mart in the International section. There is about ten individual packets in the bag. At first I thought this might be like the jelly you would spread on your toast. They are actually more like a jello shot without the alcohol. Kind of odd but tasty. Remember to "chew thoroughly before swallowing". Good!

Companion - Cha'i-Pow-Yu Braised Gluten Tidbits



Origin - Taiwan
Rating - Donkey Shit x10
Upon first glance you'd swear you had a can of pickled vaginas, ready to serve of course. It smells like a dog rubbed it's ass along a piece of wood, what a fragrance. Let me first say that this is one of the worst things I've ever had to taste and the texture is light years beyond acceptable. IF you can get past what it looks like AND the fact it smells of soy sauce, wood and shit you discover a taste that keeps on giving long after you've probably gagged. There's definitely a soy taste and some kind of woody essence and OH GOOD, it squirts in your mouth when you take a bite! The texture is a cross between used tea bags and used snot-soaked kleen-ex. Did I mention it squirts? Wow. I actually was so thrown back I had to sit down and have a cigarette. This crap could be totally rotten and you'd never know.... Reviewed by Andy X

I hadn't been looking forward to this one. And for good reason. I think they found a shoebox of these under Ed Gein's bed. The can says ready to eat but after we opened it I didn't know if I would ever be ready. Holy crap, the smell!!! I'll admit I gagged a bit. They looked even more awful out of the can. Like water logged bits of skin. After amusing myself watching Andy eat his I took a breath and manned up. Thankfully they could not live up my imagined level of badness. The tidbits had the texture of a really thin egg omlette that had been soaking in an intensely pungent soy sauce. I'm happy to say mine did not squirt. I think this product is used to convert people into being gluten free.
