In Taiwanese convenience stores, you will see a heap of tea eggs in an electric rice cooker on the counter.

First, slightly crack the crust of boiled egg and then stew and cook it with tea-leaf , soy sauce, Japanese pepper and proper salt for several hours.

7-11 even use Assam black tea as part of the marinade so the egg tastes of black tea.
On top of that, it just cost one-forth dollars.
The affordable price make it become a popular food here.

Technically, flavor and aroma (or scent) are basically the same thing, but the word "flavor" is usually only used when something is put into a person's mouth, and "aroma" is usually only used when it's *not* put in the mouth but the scent wafts up and enters the nose anyway.
On top of that, it only costs a quarter.
In most contexts, "one fourth" and "one quarter" mean exactly the same thing, but in the context of money we (at least in America) always call it a "quarter" rather than a "fourth", probably because our 25-cent coin (the largest coin in common everyday use in the US) is called a "quarter".
I've never eaten pickled beet eggs but I hope one day I can taste it.

The first 2 corrections are actually more appropriate, and used in everyday speach. But there is a small grammar correction to be made if you wanted to say one fourth.
