Taiwan (R.O.C), an island located in East Asia, about 180 kilometers off the southeastern coast of mainland China, is the home to a population of approximately 23.4 million and well-known as one of the food paradises in Asia.
Having the majority of the Chinese population, the food is a perfect fusion of cooking methods from all over China and influence from neighboring countries like Japan for an example. In Taiwan, street foods are known as “xiao chi” ranging from raw, steam, boiled, braised, baked, stir-fried, grilled and deep-fried are widely available in night markets such as Shilin, Feng Chia, Tonghua, Gongguan, Dongdamen and many more.
With the abundance choices and availability of food, 44% of total population of 23 million are overweight or obese (BMI > 24) according to Bureau of Health Promotion under the Health Ministry of Taiwan.
