Trivia
[For Kids] Looks like Japanese 'Corn Gunkan', but Taiwan mayo has massive sugar and almost no acidity, tasting like 'condensed milk corn'. Feels closer to 'sweets wrapped in salty nori' than sushi; always stacked in multiple plates on tables with kids at Taiwan conveyor belt sushi.
Eating tips & etiquette
[Unique Eating] Sprinkle Taiwan pork floss 'Rousong' slightly over the corn, making an amusement park of 'sweet, salty, crispy, popping' textures!
