Thanks, yes the Taiwan people are really resourceful and they are very astute business entrepreneur.  I wonder how these products taste.  The salad looks really appetizing, and I like the look of the soap too.  Have you try any of them?  They all look pretty upmarket to me.- f/ \, ?# p; m. T$ a
Thanks for the info.

I only tasted the salad so far.  Easy House is one of the best vege restaurant here.
