it's so bad, it's good! didn't know there were a few chicharon fans out there (and one in germany too).

liyin thanks for sharing that pic -- the name 'chicharon' might have originated from 'cha chu'...

'chicharon' is just what we call it, liyin. (there's no direct translation, nothing along the lines of 'Won-a-pa-lei' meaning 'girl with the long black hair', for example).

i thought it was related to the crunchy sound when it's eaten.
