There is a store selling various nuts in the local Chenggong Market

The Chenggong Market near the hotel where I was staying in Taipei was a local market. There were no stores selling souvenirs, and all the stores sold the kind of things that locals come to buy. Some sell clothes, some sell accessories, and of course some sell food. The place was bustling with many locals who came here to buy.

No matter where you go, it is always fun to wander around and look at what is for sale in the local markets. However, it is not so interesting to look at clothing stores in Taiwan.

In contrast, it is often interesting to look at the food being sold in Taiwan, as there are things sold there that are not commonly seen in Japan. While wandering around the market, I came to a store selling nuts. On the table were various nuts in bags. I searched for something unusual that I could not find in Japan. Unfortunately, all the nuts sold in this store were the same as those sold in Japan. Unlike fruits, there was no difference in nuts sold in Taiwan and Japan.
