There were several butcher shops operating in the Chenggong Market. Chinese people are said to eat everything with four legs except a desk and a chair, so there are basically no taboos regarding food. They do not eat pork like Muslims or beef like Hindus. In the butcher shop in the photo, there were various cuts of meat on display, and customers were constantly coming in. The staff were working busily.
Among the customers, I noticed a woman standing motionless in the storefront. She had her hand over her mouth and was staring at the meat hanging there. She was pondering which meat to buy, but couldn't seem to make up her mind. Watching her, I thought that she should just buy all of them, but I guess that would not be possible.
I was impressed by the fact that women's thinking in supermarkets and other places where food is sold is the same in Japan as in Taiwan.
