There's something about food that's so special to me. It's... home?
Some people eat for comfort, others eat just to sustain their own energy to survive. I think I eat, because it just tastes really good. I get so many food cravings; Indian food, Mediterranean food, Chipotle, Italian food, etc.
Well, one day my family ate this Chinese dish for a tradition that's almost lost, and it was pretty amazing. It really made me want to go back to Taiwan to see how much it had changed. There's this one mall there, and when I was little, I used to always go to this one food stand to get a cream filled pastry shaped as a fish. The outside was like a waffle type of pastry, and the inside was this creamy, sweet custard. They would make it right in front of you, so it was always hot. Many times there were lines, but I always waited. I wonder if the person who ran the stand remembered my face. One day when I travel back, I'm definitely going to go there in hopes of finding that little stand.

Anyway! I cannot say that I have a place like that in the world that I must go back to to get food from. Ive...never really traveled that much...oh well.
Good for you to have aspirations about your future, though.
me either. but I'll probably missed the foods I have when I was younger; snacks that are no longer available now.
i'm not sure if the vendor would remember your face because they see so many people a day and you've probably changed so much that it's impossible to recognize. oh well...as long as the happy spirits of the creamy waffle fishies remember you and fill you with their magic, you should be content. i miss this thing called chicken egg cake and this thing called fragrant gras and this snack called starry sky, and omg...so many! i miss my childhood :( anyways... -yo sista :)
Actually, upon reflection and noticing perisher's comment, there is one food: The Gerber Baby Food Pretzles.
They dont make them anymore 'cause babies would choke on them and they got sued >_> but uh, those things PWNT FACE. I still miss them T_T I could eat a box every 20 minutes if I ate slowly :3
