They really should've had a food challenge. I mean what's the first
thing that comes to mind when it comes to Taiwan? Well Thai food of
course!

My ultimate wish is that Thailand would just revert back to their old name
of Siam to stop this American ignorance once and for all.

Are they?
Maybe a future TAR Asia will have the Asian racers race through Boston,
Massachusetts. I would love to see if they can figure out the traffic
patterns there, negotiate the traffic circles (rotaries), etc.
Or figure out how to get around New York City via the subway.
There are almost certainly parts of America that would be quite
confusing to foreigners.

Taiwan is still independent. It's Hong Kong that went back.

Boston? The city where my father once asked for directions and was
told "You can't get there from here"---by a *FIREMAN*!
