This jerky and pork floss shop in Yuanlin City in Changhua has been in business for 40 years and has strong appeal for customers spanning three generations.

Customer
Long time regular
We’ve been eating this for three generations, from my father-in-law’s generation, to when I married into the family, to our children, and now our grandchildren. We all love these flavors. So now that we’ve finished it, we’ve come back to buy more.

Customer
Loves jerky
It’s so convenient when we go outdoors. Kids love to eat it. For example, some jerky in other places has a gamey smell, so our kids don’t dare touch it. But theirs is just so delicious.

Discerning customers can tell with one bite that the owner uses only fresh, warm pork to maintain its elasticity.

Chang Yu-tsung
Second-generation owner
Our pork comes from freshly slaughtered pork that is never chilled. It’s processed immediately upon arrival, ensuring the meat is very fresh because only fresh meat has elasticity.

When Chang Yu-tsung, 37, was at university, his father suddenly passed away. He was unable to bear seeing his mother struggling alone. He decided to suspend his studies and take over the family business, the pork floss and jerky shop.

Second-generation owner
It’s about passing on the legacy. After all, it’s the result of the meticulous work of my father and mother a generation ago. If we can continue it well, we’ll feel a great sense of accomplishment.

Their shop retains the warmth of traditional shop owners interacting with customers, and the family also embraces online marketing. They are not seeking great wealth, but rather a legacy of craftsmanship and delicious food.
