Let me tell you something: America knows how to put some sugar in some snacks and make them taste good.

Taiwanese snacks, it's better than any American snack.

- Well, first of all.  - Why are we doing this video?

I'm really excited to show you the stuff that I grew up with.

As you open it you know that you may not feel your toes at the end of the day.

I don't know if the FDA issued a warning.

Sachima, I think the concept is the same.

It's deep fried noodles and then they bind it together with this delicious caramel glaze.

That one's giant. Look at this, see what I'm saying?

Look at this, see what I'm saying? Look, this is half the size of this.

I think this is the only time the American portion is smaller than the international version.

If you put powdered sugar on top of this, it would taste like a funnel cake.

I could save this for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

I don't remember so much marshmallow flavor.

It's not as sweet as I thought it was gonna be.

This is getting a little bit too sweet for me.

It's really sticky though, gets in the teeth.

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention, it's super sticky.

I would rather a dentist visit than on my death bed, so, this wins.

We have the Koloko which is the pea crackers.

Made from peas; P-A - , P-E-A, peas, no...

Everybody knows that everybody has had it as a kid.

Garlicky flavor, it's like an umami bomb in little chips.

In USA, America we have Fritos flavored twists, honey barbecue.

I remember so vividly getting so excited to buy these.

Growing up we used to do Frito pies, which we used to do chili and cheese.

Sweet, tangy barbecue flavor with that twist and that crunch, you actually taste the flavors five hours after you eat them.

This is a light, delicate, garlic flavor.

- It's really mellow.  - It creeps on you.

It's really salty, but I can't stop eating it.

I don't know what America's done to me, but.

What if I'm Taiwanese now? Let me switch with you.

I gotta give it to my country. I forgot how this bursts with flavor!

I think I would have to stick with that one.

That's why I'm saving this so I can make me a chili pie later, okay.

This beef jerky, this is like a childhood staple as well.

Coming home from school, having your beef jerky.

The snack that you would take like camping.

So this is also beef jerky, also my childhood favorite.

Juicy and tender and it's like all kinds of amazing.

In Taiwan you would see stalls and they would literally be grilling the jerky.

- So you saw it up close and personal.  - We saw it.

Every time I go to Taiwan I honestly just want to bring a suitcase of pork jerky back, but US customs won't let me.
