- Carlsberg was founded in Denmark in 1847 and is known for being the first in the world to produce "pilsner," a type of lager beer. On the other hand, potato chips are considered to have been invented in America in 1853. Originally, they were salted, but flavors like barbecue were later added and became popular. In Hong Kong, you can enjoy the combination of these Western snacks and drinks, experiencing the globalization of food culture. Carefully taking out each chip and savoring the beer, the intense flavor of the chips is neutralized by the beer, creating a perfect harmony. Next time, try eating chips with chopsticks instead of your fingers; you'll find it surprisingly comfortable as your hands stay clean. However, writing a brief blog post while just devouring chips in a hotel without properly appreciating the meal might suggest that the author's awareness is fizzing up like beer, and perhaps it's something to be a little concerned about.
