They definitely didn't alter their recipes where I'm at in Georgia - everything here is still sugar coated.

How have they managed to stay in business?


It's at the heart of the fresh off the boat Korean/Chinese/Vietnamese communities. Place is always packed, with not a few white people mixed in.

And the few white people never come back I bet lol

Do Chinese and Vietnamese like sugary garlic bread too?

It's in Doraville, where Georgia's first K-town was located before the Chinese moved in and the Koreans got wealthier and moved farther into the burbs to avoid the Chinese. These days the only Koreans around there are recent immigrants.
