In recent days, media reports on the illegal addition of plasticizers to Taiwanese drinks have been endless. Some media even said that the impact and severity of this matter are no less serious than the melamine incident that caused a lot of fuss some time ago. Now I have found that even the famous brand-Sheng Xiangzhen Jelly has plasticizer added. This is what children like to eat, but it scared me to death. It seems that I will make my own jelly in the future.
Recently, I discovered that a supermarket sold coral algae (sea bird's nest), so I bought a pack of cold salad and made some tea jelly. It felt good and my daughter wanted to eat it.
