Experience in Taiwan So far, I went on a trip more than 10 countries. One of my memorable country was Taiwan, people and food there were awesome. One of the beauty of the trip to me is that I could try to have some exotic foods. There, my Taiwanese friend highly recommended "stinky tofu" to me so I tried at night market. It actually seemed very popular in Taiwan because I had to wait long hours to buy it in the line. Its taste was good to me, but smell was aweful. My friend said natto's smell is worse than stinky tofu but I thought natto's smell is not that bad. According to my friend, stinky tofu is an acquired taste so it grows on me over time. Therefore, I would try again in my next trip to Taiwan.

My Experience in Taiwan

So far, I have taken trips to more than 10 countries. Among the most memorable one was in Taiwan: the people and the food there were remarkable. The main beauty of that trip to me was that I could try some exotic foods. Once there, my Taiwanese friend highly recommended for me to eat "stinky tofu" so I tried it when we were at the night market. Honestly, it tasted rather good to me, but yes, its smell was awful! It actually seemed to be very popular in Taiwan because I often had to wait in line for long hours to buy it.

My friend said the smell of a traditional Japanese dish, natto, is worse than stinky tofu, but having experienced both of them, I thought that natto's smell is not as bad. According to my friend, the secret to enjoying stinky tofu is realizing that it is the result of an acquired taste, so I should allow it to grow on me over time.* Therefore, I will definitely try it again during my next trip to Taiwan.

Hi Yuji! Good job! Whatever changes that I’ve made were merely done to allow your sentences to sound more natural to my native ears. I hope that this helps you. J. *I think the secret is not gaining an acquired taste, but rather being able to ignore and/or downgrade the smell!
