Thank you, Nick. Particularly because I read this as “Sterilised with … dried hot” and my mind boggled, thinking “What is dried hot? WHAT IS DRIED HOT?”

Good to know they are sterilized and they remain non-poisonous. I crack up sometimes when I read things in English translated by a French person like you see in restaurants. I am sure there are lots more of these funny things especially in areas where there are lots of English speaking visitors.

Wonderful. These packages are so reassuring.

Group office email yesterday here in Shanghai:

“Dear All

请大家整理一下桌面，今晚阿姨又要杀蟑螂了。

Pls clean your desk and area, tonight Ayi (the cleaning lady) will annihilate the cockroaches.”

I love a good cockroach anihilation, don’t you?
