Although for us, iirc the only localized foods I reckon (actually drinks) are Sprite and Fanta, called Chinotto and Hit respectively.

It's pretty much just that, either you hate it or you love it. Do you perhaps not put salt on it while eating? If you don't then you should try eating it but you add salt to the part you're about to bite.ClovenHelm wrote:

The city I live in is called "City with Millions of Angkots" (Like a bus for public but cars)
But it's going to be replaced by these buses (because angkots are not good for the environment)

We have the cleanest village in Asia.

Our language has been proposed to be changed to standardize all dialects and vocabulary, sorta like how Esperanto works.
