150 People In Taiwan Successfully Changed Their Name To Salmon For Free Sushi

Sushi is surely the dish that almost everyone around the globe likes. Meanwhile, some Taiwanese residents are going beyond limits to gets the sushi treat for free by changing their official names to “salmon”.

For the unknown, this is for them to take advantage of a restaurant’s promotion.

Changing their names to Mr. and Mrs. Salmon

As per Central News Agency (CNA), 150 people have registered to rename themselves to take part in a promotion by Sushiro which runs until Thursday.

Previously, an announcement was made that they would give away free sushi to anybody whose name having the characters 鮭 and 魚. CAN said that together, they mean ‘salmon’, a main ingredient of the dish.

That one individual along with a maximum of five guests can get a free meal as long as they prove it’s their real name with an official ID.

In their Facebook update, Sushiro said that it would offer fewer discounts to those who added only one of these Chinese characters to their name as a part of the promotion.

Some could not change their names back to normal

Ministry of the Interior in Taiwan had to step in on Wednesday. They urged people to carefully consider before changing names after a hike in applications.

On Wednesday, a man who changed his name said he would change it back once he had received the benefits from the promotion.

As per Taiwan’s Name Act, people are only allowed to do so three times. It means in theory that some may end up stuck with the salmon name. In fact, a man seems to set the example for this, as he texted his mother to change his name back to normal. However, it was impossible as he reached his third time.

Meanwhile, CNA also reported that it dissuades a man from changing. Others still determined to change their name to salmon although they had already had their names changed before.
