I just tried this and honestly its the best snack I've had in a long time. The Chinese really know what's up.These are called Latiao (or "spicy sticks"). My brother's Chinese coworker, she gifted him a few packets, he gave them to me. Delicious, if a bit too salty and oily.
The Asians put sugar into their snacks and it's offputting. That and the "numbing" spice that makes your mouth feel like shit.
>>21629462It didn't numb my mouth or anything, it was just a bit spicy but not overly soOverall great, would have again
>>21629462Westerners put sugar in pork, beef and salmon dishes. That is weirder Asian sugar is usually accompanied by savoury flavours
>>21629439Is this any different from the hundreds of flavors of beef sticks that already exist?
>>21629893>beefit's wheat gluten.these are the tits. latiao and white tea have genuinely made me consider moving to china and never coming back
>>21629898So like a savory churro?
>>21629898So leave. Nobody wants you here.
>>21629902no, wheat gluten, it's chewy, wheat gluten is a purified wheat protein. it has a very rubbery chewy texture and all the flavorings are absorbed as if it were tofu or any other meat.>>21629904i've decided to stay to spite you.
>>21629909What about the wheat sticks and boiled leaf water
>>21629915we have wheat sticks and boiled leaf water at home
>>21629909I mean churros are chewy, im trying to get an idea of what these even are
>>21629934Churros are more of a bread thing. Go grab a rubber band and give it a chew. That's your texture.
>>21629439Probably made of bats and bugs
>>21629439I HATE the spice mix on these the flavor is terrible
>>21629571>Asian sugar is usually accompanied by savoury flavoursSounds like the tagline for a sex tourist’s guide to Thailand
>>21629571>Westerners put sugar in pork, beef and salmon dishesIn moderation, in certain dishes but asians do it more you dumb fuck. Buy asian sausage, asian bread, asian chips and they douse them in sugar on top of spice and salt. Their tastebuds must be shot to shit. People give negroes a hard time about overdoing seasoning but some of that Chinese shit is like gastronomic dyslexia.
