My first taste memory is pickle. Even as a kid, I was really weird. I liked chillis. I used to climb up the shelves in my grandmother's pantry. The pickle jar was kept right at the top. One time, I dropped the jar and it broke. I was totally busted.

我的第一次味觉记忆是酸菜。当我还是个孩子的时候,我就很奇怪。我喜欢辣椒。我过去常常爬上祖母储藏室的架子。泡菜坛子就放在最上面。有一次,我把罐子掉在地上摔破了。我彻底崩溃了。
