A fresh fruit juice stall at the Taitung Tourism Night Market has such delicious juice that it’s gained a large following. The proprietor, Lo Yung-feng, has even won awards. Lo has established long-term relationships with local farmers that enable him to find the highest quality fruit. What’s less well known is that Lo was once a prison instructor and is devoted to promoting good health. Let’s meet Lo.

First the pineapple is washed with water.

Then the fruit is chopped and sliced on the spot. The proprietor is working quickly, aiming to maintain the freshness of the fruit.

A dragon fruit is added and there’s the same process. Even its weight must be calculated precisely.

Whether it’s papaya, watermelon or pineapple, cups of fresh fruit are displayed in front of the stall, and many people are queuing up. This fresh juice stall is quite famous in Taitung Tourism Night Market because of its freshly extracted fruit juice and hygienic conditions.

When I was younger, I was working a regular job and didn’t have much to do in the evenings, so I started doing a side business at the night market. I started with bubble tea but in recent years I’ve come to realize that health is more important than anything else. So I thought I’d sell healthy fresh fruit juice.

The proprietor was originally a rehabilitation instructor who taught inmates skills in prison. After clocking off from work, he and his wife moonlighted at the night market selling cups of boba. He retired ten years ago and a plasticizer scandal led him to believe that health is more important than anything else. This prompted Lo Yung-feng to switch from selling bubble tea to selling healthy fruit juice.

The idea of eating seasonal, local produce is to encourage consumers to enjoy the
ingredients of each region they visit—they are the freshest and most delicious.

Eating seasonal fruits is the freshest and tastiest way to enjoy them, but turning them into fruit juice for sale is not something anyone can do. Lo puts in a lot of effort to produce the highest quality juice.

After working with them for a long time, you’ll know which fruit farmers have fruit with excellent sweetness and quality. That’s based on experience.

His years of accumulated experience have enabled him to find local fruit farmers with high-quality produce and he’s cooperated with them for the long-term. His high standards for the production process have also earned him many awards.

With cups in their hands, people are happily drinking. This retired prison instructor may be busy, but he is also living a fulfilling life.
