EEAAO is a game changer for Asians in the industry. I have the cough syrup you're talking about (voice over artists recommend it, lol), and it's amazing to feel seen and heard on screen.
Love all that you are doing with this newsletter, you're an incredible writer!
Thanks for the rec, will check it out. Totally forgot about haw flakes!!!! Okay also, what was that sort of chalky white marzipan-tasting sweet that comes in gum-like sticks?
I felt so seen when I spotted the pi pa gao as well! And all the Chinglish. Loved this post. Gotta go find myself some whipped cream fruit cake this weekend.

Emily X.R. Pan's book The Astonishing Color of After explores grief and suicide loss through the eyes of a half Taiwanese-American girl.
+1 for Frankie Gaw's First Generation! The pantry section is full of snacks that remind me of my childhood. Haw Flakes, anyone!?

I almost want to order some pi pa gao for the mems 😂 one reader replied to me via email that it’s actually popular among voice actors, who knew?! Haha
love this post! I felt that same way when I read Frankie Gaw's cookbook First-Generation! I still need to watch EEAO!!
Ooh I need to buy Frankie’s book, too. Adding to cart now!
I was coming to comment about this book too! I love it even more than Woks of Life’s!
