This weekend was a very relaxing weekend. We kinda just sat around and had a blast and it was completely stress free!
Sunday Aaron and I were riding our bikes home from getting some delicious fried rice for dinner and as we were riding our bikes we passed this little girl. She was walking with her Father down the side of the road begging him to buy her something. Fortunately, mine and Aaron's Chinese is so good we were able to figure out what she wanted.
She was saying "臭豆腐, 臭豆腐, 臭豆腐, 臭豆腐, 臭豆腐!!" (Chòu dòufu). To translate it for all you Wàiguó rén she wanted stinky tofu.
If you've never smelled stinky tofu consider yourself blessed. Now imagine the stinkiest barn you've ever smelled, that's what stinky tofu smells like. What does it taste like? Well, kinda like it smells. It's really popular over here in Taiwan and everyone likes it. We ate it one of the first weeks that we got to Taiwan. It's really not that appetizing, the smell kinda makes you wanna puke.
Meanwhile in America....."McDonalds, McDonalds, McDonalds!!!"
