asian sausage snacks! they're not like slim jims. they have a softer, smoother texture and are more likely to be slightly sweet than spicy. i never developed a taste for them but they come in a million varieties over there as do ramen noodles and soy sauce. i saw a grocery store aisle that was JUST soy sauce...
A friend of mine and I would buy the ugliest-looking sausage snacks we could find for a coworker we hated. She never ate them, even though we demanded it since they were a gift, A GIFT.
