Strawberry Country







Wednesday 17 March - trip to Miaoli County, known for its superbly delicious strawberries. Strawberry sausage says it all.

Sausage = Xiang Chang (literally, I'm told, means, frangrant meat
Strawberry = Cao Mei.

Cao Mei Xiang Chang (pronounced, Tsow May Shang Chang.

  5. Oh I didn't try it! No strawberry sausage for this lady! The strawberries, strawberry wine, strawberry cake, and the strawberry popcorn was all very delicious. I just took Blythe's word on the xiang chang.

  6. sausage, akin to Jimmy Dean links, but with a subtle hint of strawberries. like a strawberry popsicle, except not sugary or frozen.
