Re: Can anyone that can read Taiwanese tell me what this is?
For your future reference, Taiwanese = Simplified Chinese. In mainland China they use Traditional Chinese.

It says "Beef Capsule"
I'd assume it's some kind of beef-flavored candy or candy-shaped beef jerkyComment

Right, but that doesn't mean supermarkets are devoid of other foreign products. Just visit a store at your local Chinatown.Originally posted by subinComment

Re: Can anyone that can read Taiwanese tell me what this is?
Wait, what. Isn't it the other way around?
1. Taiwan uses traditional Chinese.
2. China uses simplified Chinese.
3. Taiwanese is primarily a spoken language, rarely written. When it is, it's either usually in Chinese characters mostly compatible with Mandarin Chinese (but not 100%) or in some form of romanization, usually POJ Church romanization.
4. I see simplified characters on the packaging.Last edited by Breakdown16; 10-30-2011, 08:26 PM.

Its "Chinese". Chinese is the language, the writing on the packaging is Chinese.
Chinese characters/writing have many different ways of pronouncing them; or dialects, Taiwanese(/Hokkien) is one of them. Mandarin is the most spoken dialect. You can have people speaking different dialects of Chinese which may have problems communicating with each other, yet they have a common understanding of the written languageLast edited by LongGone; 10-30-2011, 11:55 PM.Comment
