15/10/2007: "JELLYFISH - DRIED ......... in Taipei"

Stacks of dried jellyfish in pancake form selling at AUS$15 each.

If jellyfish can be dried and eaten, what about possible uses for Crown of Thorns starfish? Wouldn't it be incredible if this present enemy of corals became a valueable food item?

Inside this store in Dihua Street were packaged fresh abalone, out of the shell. Large size about AUS$80 each. Two for NT$4,800

The area is also a huge retail outlet for dried shark fins, dried scallops (or clam)? Canned abalone.

The location is at the intersection of Yan Ping Road and MingShen West Road. Hundreds of stores.

Just like the old days of Sydney's tiny Haymarket (Chinatown).
