Salted lemon is a summer essential , and it's also great for a sore throat when enjoyed hot!

Salted lemon, a traditional flavor from Chaoshan, has been pickled for years and brewed by the sun. The salty aroma is wrapped in the fruity aroma, and it is sweet and mellow. A spoonful of it in water will instantly eliminate the heat; a spoonful in soup will whet your appetite and relieve greasiness.

The packaging was intact, the production date was recent, and there was no damage during transportation. The delivery packaging was also very careful (ice packs/foam were very adequate).

Super delicious, slightly sour and sweet, with an exceptionally good texture I've repurchased it multiple times
zhixianceng5
Very good and very tasty sweet sour and savory
SP Elaine Lip Chhung
I placed a few orders based on positive reviews, but they weren't as tasty or fun as Hong Yuan Fruit Popping Candy, nor as refreshing as Dah Bif's salted lemon and mint flavor. So I cancelled the rest of my orders. This candy is really just average. I suggest buying one pack to try. Luckily, I didn't buy 15 bags at once. Many Weee products have purchase limits, and this one currently has a maximum order of 15. Thank goodness I didn't order that many; it's very ordinary.
