  1. Candies gave me a wonderful memory when I was still a child. Whenever I did something good, my parents would buy some candies for me, and all the candies were different kind of flavors. I was very delighted when I got these candies; therefore, I would always try my best to request my parents to give me some candies. I think the candies occupied lots of my wonderful childhood.

  2. Chochlate is my favorite food I enjoyed while I were a child. Because chocolate is so sweet and contains creamy texture. But, it’s high calorie and has a lot of fat.

  4. Chewing gum is my favorite in my childhood. I always fought for chewing gum with my sisters. I remember there was one brand which was called “飛壘Chewing gum” was the one made us fight every time.

  5. Sponge cake-the food which is not only comforts me but also can be defined as my childhood. I always remember those days when I was before the age of go to kindergarten and my borther was about before the elementary school that mom took me shop for grocery almost every morning. The only thing that would keeps my brother and my mouth shut from annoying mom was the sponge cake (but my mom always tell us that is “Gun Cookie”-槍槍餅乾 since we were little). My borther and I always like to make a little competition that who gets the gun-shaped sponge cake then he/ she is the winner. If we all get the gun-shaped sponge cake, we’ll pretend that we are the cowboys form the western America and having a fake gun fight. I guess that the sponge cake was the connection between my borther and I having such a good sibling relationship since we were little. Even till now, I still like to buy some sponge cakes then share with my borther and having a good memory recall with him.
