He raises a case in point: In the past, Taiwanese rarely ate hot peppers or garlic, assuming that only mainlanders ate these things, and have no idea that after decades even eating habits have become impossible to separate by provincial origin.
他舉例，以前台灣人很少吃大蒜、辣椒，以為這些東西只有「外省人」吃；殊不知經過幾十年融合，一般人連吃東西的習慣也分不出省籍了。
