Worthless Factoid - Taiwan Trash

In the US there is a kind of music we associate with Ice Cream truck, (or music trucks if you don't want your kids to bug you about ice cream).  However in Taiwan that same music is not associated with Ice Cream, but rather trash collection.

From what I have heard, the same is true in Hong Kong; a friend of mine was feeling depressed when he first moved to Taiwan from HK and when he heard the music he thought that an ice cream would make him feel better.  So he followed the noise only to find several guys collecting rubbish.  

Talk about heartbreak
