these snacks are frequently placed next to crucial machinery such as servers, ATMs, and control systems – and inside offices in police stations, hospitals, schools, and many more in Taiwan.

I imagine this tradition started from operators and repair technicians accidentally leaving bags behind, after some late night repair or maintenance session on said machinery. So, no wonder it was in good working order.

As a superstition, I guess it's pretty harmless but hard for me to wrap my head around. How is it meant to work? Do they think a benevolent spirit will be attracted to the chips, or what?
