We had a neighbor - the wife is an american, husband-half american, half Korean. They feed their 6 yar old daughtr “internatinal foods” including dry squid that came from the asian Lola. Whenever she comes to our house (close to the chilren’s playgrond), she brings a whole pack of dry quid. She will then pull some directly frm the plastic bag and munch on it like a beef jerky. The other kids does not seems to mind, but I remember wheneer she tries to talk to me… ohhhhhlalala, the opungent sweet smell of the stuff is aromatic.. I guess I guess I should be more welcoming since I eat tuyo, bagoong, etc..

I remember my trip to Tabo-an Market last year. After staying there for a scant 45 mins, the taxis refused to take us as we reeked of dried fish smell!!!!
