Dear All

Does anyone know where I can buy schnapps or haggis in Taiwan?

If you do find haggis, it will be the Taiwanese version. As far as Taiwanese restaurateurs are concerned, ingredients are interchangeable. Don't have ingredient B? That's ok, just throw in ingredient X.

As one Taiwanese told me, "We like to take other countries' food and make it better." Ever since I've had this scene play out in my head:

Some betelnut-chewing retard walks into the kitchen of Maxim's in Paris, walks over to the head chef who has just finished his culinary masterpiece, sprinkles some 5 spice and a few nibblets of Green Giant corn on it and delcares, "I made it better."

LOL. Don't forget the rousong (meat floss).
