Must be some secret recipe they’re saving for themselves.’ They both laughed, realizing it was just another quirky thing about their local Asian market.
2. One day, while browsing the shelves of Dragon Star Oriental Foods, a little boy pointed excitedly at an unfamiliar jar and whispered to his mom, ‘Mommy, what’s that funny-smelling pickle?’ The mother smiled and gently replied, 'Oh honey, that's not a pickle—those are preserved baby shrimp!' The boy's eyes widened in horror, but then he giggled and said, 'Ewww, yucky! Can we get some real pickles instead?'
