When we go on our grocery run, my partner goes around picking up his fruits, vegetables and other stuff that he eats.
As for me, it's just one item - meat. And then I am very free to walk around the store to look at poison things that most people eat (which I also used to eat).
This week I focused on instant noodles. When I was growing up, the hot new sensation was Maggi Mee. Now there are so many instant noodle brands.
Even Kampua Mee can be instant.
Sarawak Laksa.
Curry Laksa.
Even wanton noodles.
Instant nasi lemak flavored instant fried beehoon. Imagine the chemicals, additives and preservatives that go into the making of the flavorings of these noodles (and the noodles itself).
And then there is instant pasta.

My dorm mates at matriculation loved Maggi instant noodles. They boil water in a pail (using a water immersion heater) to cook a few packets of noodles to share.
Then we went to look for coffee and look what we found. A packet of chickpeas.
And a packet of TimTam. Another incidence of unethical shoppers. Tsk!
Earlier in the morning, Girl and Kittie Kat were chilling out on top of daddy's car
Girl absolutely refused to look at me.
Sourpuss. LOL!
I caught Ah Boi at the right moment. She is a very sweet girl.
I'm amazed by the wide variety of instant noodles in the market!

ReplyDeleteGood morning ππ meow meow am happy to see you girls. π π πΊ π⬛ Feel like stroking you girls. Oh yes, was strolling inside our neighborhood supermarket, now that you featured then I discovered that we have TANGLE instant pasta too and that got me curious. But we do not have so much variety as yours. When I was a kid, cooking and eating instant noodles with the TV cartoon show in front of me was the biggest happiness, how I wish I am a kid again, simple things like these can make me happy for days. Why do we have to grow up and become adults with complicated minds and not take joy in the simplest things like a kid. Thought π of the day
ReplyDeleteNext you can feature Eggs. I found different types of egg in our supermarket, there are the "first born eggs" π₯, "cage free eggs which are certified humane that include nutritious diet without antibiotics, animals raised with shelter, resting areas, sufficient space and with the ability to engage in natural behaviors.", "Kampong eggs", "carrots eggs π₯", "omega 6 eggs", "omega 3 eggs", "jumbo or King's size eggs", "rise and shine corn π½ rich eggs" and so on. The two big brands in our supermarket are Seng Choon and Chew's.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, sometimes I hit published for my comment, it appeared 2 times in your blog post, is it bcos I hit too fast?
ReplyDeleteHi dear friend, your cats π π» π⬛️ are precious.
ReplyDeleteWhen I make pasta, I buy the plain spaghettini noodles and a bottle of vegan sauce. I don't purchase the type of noodles in your photos. I try to not eat much packaged foods.
I can imagine you walking around the supermarket taking photos of instant noodles π
ReplyDeleteAh Boi is a sleek beauty π
Why was Girl not looking at mommy? Kittie Kat and Girl turning themselves into π π
