The fact that they knocked down the slushy so they could fit more is astonishing considering that we have products here that leave empty holes in packaging thus giving you less product for your money
For those concerned, I live in Taiwan and they recycle all of their plastics (every home and apartment has a recycling area and when the trash and recyclables are collected, they seperate them into the different types of recyclables) these plastic bags are most like made of recycled plastic and will 99% be recycled. But yes, she should have asked for no bag, or could've just asked for paper only
I am an American born Taiwanese so please correct me if I’m wrong but the times where I’ve been back to Taiwan, they actually charge you money to use their plastic bags at stores such as 7/11, FamilyMart, ect. I wonder why the street vendors don’t do this as well? This can be an incentive to use less plastic bags and if someone really needs a baggy, they could pay for it.
80% of the comments: “OMG YES OR YES IS PLAYING” 19% of the comments: “Why is there so much plastic wasted?” 1% of the comments: actual comments for the food. 😂 Edit: Thanks for the 500 likes!😊
in theory I agree, but the paperbag is to absorb the grease, the plastic is to keep it sanitary and for convenience. But yes, waaaay too much plastic usage.
Paper gets soggy, people hang their food on motorcycles, Taiwan rains a lot. But also, Taiwan literally recycles everything... So it's literally negligible. Taiwanese people also have a culture of reusing so I can promise you most of those bags will go to other uses before final tossing.
As an Indian, I find it impressive that no vendor is actually touching the food with hands; which is so common in India. And also good to know that there are many options without meat too 💆🏻♂️
MeatballMountain it should be something like “At least Taiwan Recycles unlike the US” Add at the beginning “To y’all that think Taiwan uses too much plastic” for context
Person: Hi, I can have blah blah blah? Them: *puts food in plastic in plastic in plastic* bro one year later and people are having some kind of geography lesson in the comments lol
plastic bags for food are actually mostly Polypropylene，which is reusable. And Taiwan actually has one of the highest annual recycle rates in the world, and people are actually pushing for biodegradable PBS to be used in food packages. So I hope this could at least put you at ease for a little bit.
boop 373 Not saying that using paper is bad, but while it is biodegradable, the trees cut down for the paper takes decades to grow and did you know that paper straws are actually worse for the environment? I think we should find something that is reusable rather than disposable
Yeah, but majority of plastic used in Taiwan are polylactide or Polycaprolactone so they heavily recycle and reuse plastic. Here in the US since recycling policy are in manufacturors and special interest's favor we often using Polystyrene and other non recyclable plastics (think ziplock bags, potato chip bags, single cheese wrappers...). And since our waste management doesn't separate those stuff it go into landfill and the sea, while taiwanese separates their trash melt them down into raw pallets/filament to be reuse again.
As a Mandarin language learner with strong food interests, I really appreciated that this video shows her actually ordering! I've watched so many street food and night market videos where they skip over that and only show the food once it's purchased. One basic question for anyone: is "可以要一個xxx" (as she says here) a good way to place an order? Are there other good, polite ways too? Textbooks say "來一個" but that doesn't feel right to me. When I once asked a native speaker from China how she would order food, she said "我們點xxx." I feel like maybe that's fine in a restaurant, but somehow that doesn't feel right for street food. One audio lesson from a long time ago said "我想要一個xxx." Is that good? Any help appreciated!
You can say 可以要一個xxx, 我要一份xxx, 我想要一個xxx, or even just say the thing that you want (“一份xxx, 謝謝”), “來一個xxx” definitely sounds weird or even demanding to me. I hope this helps!
I would live off of scallion pancakes and brown sugar cakes if I lived there! Everything looked so good! Also, props to the editing team, fantastic work ❤

They already placed the food inside a paper bag. I just don’t see the reason to place it inside plastic after that.

My thoughts exactly.
Well, it's still better than two layers of plastic.
Paper gets soggy, people hang their food on motorcycles, Taiwan rains a lot. But also, Taiwan literally recycles everything... So it's literally negligible. Taiwanese people also have a culture of reusing so I can promise you most of those bags will go to other uses before final tossing.
