I live at 'ground zero' in a town known as "Snack City" here on Taiwan. Eating is a legitamate profession here and snack-samplig is an honored tradition. A "KettleCorn" shop - bright YELLOW in color - opened up around the corner from my house a few months back. They make it out on the street...they stock it in buckets along the walls...they literally force you to taste it as you walk down the sidewalk.
Its all I can do to avoid going past their shop 3-4 times a day....I'm trapped!...trapped I tell ya!

(I'll try to post a pic of the place - but that means they'll see me...and lure me in with sweet aromatic promises of crunchy delight...oooo the agony)

If I lived around the corner from a kettle corn emporium, I would weigh 200 pounds.
