You can buy ribcages at walmarts here in the US, they aren't just dumped in a pile though.

#6 is probably a common dry sausage. Ingredients are most likely lard with pork or duck meat. The darker kind might have blood, liver or both.

a product such as the Orange juice, free with cooking oil, is a common marketing tool in most countries. they are probably made by the same company.
can be any combination of products. not much different than a happy meal at McDo, or prizes in Cracker Jacks

Why do the signs feature Chinese letters but Western numbers?

Answer: because they work.
Those are actually Indian numbers, BTW.

I believe they use Chinese Characters to write Chinese letters. But email is catching on.

Well, look at that! Thanks for the link:
Adoption in China

During Ming and Qing dynasties (when Arabic numerals were first introduced into China), some Chinese mathematicians used Chinese numeral characters as positional system digits. After the Qing dynasty, both the Chinese numeral characters and the Suzhou numerals were replaced by Arabic numerals in mathematical writings.
