Trivia

[Trend] Tasteless alone, but absorbs moisture/sauces quickly. If not eaten 'within 1 min' of coating with sauce it gets soggy, so it's a live-action ingredient demanding the stall uncle's high-speed mixing and the customer's rapid consumption.

Eating tips & etiquette

[Unique Usage] Mixed with mustard oil, spices, raw onions, put in a paper cone, eating wildly by hand while walking on evening beaches or trains!

Allergen

None
