dean Dr. Gaston J. C. Wu (化學所長吳家誠教授)'s book <Those black-heart products

(毒物專家絕不買的黑心商品)>
(Nov. 2013): Most of the time I eat at home, and has never dined out in
street-side shops / small-eat markets (路邊攤),
because those small-eat shops usually/always
do not
meet the minimum standards of
cleanliness.
In case I can't reject some dinner party or must dine out, I select only
some restaurants I fully trust. Besides, I've never touched processed food
or cured products, and any drinks commercially available(市售飲料)
in Taiwan, particularly, pearl milk tea which already is a world known Taiwanese
food. PS:
The China Times (8-15-2015):
Taiwanese favorite drinks contain high Kcal/g heat, you will gain 5.1kg if having pearl milk tea one regular cup
(not less-sugar option)
per day for 2 months. Green Tea with Yakult(多多)'s
Heat 341 Kcal/g, which is 3.2 times the upper limit
of free sugar(游離糖) advised by WHO., Yakult drink, Orange
juice, milk tea are high-heat too.
