Food race and, er, just food
While I'm advertising events, I just thought to mention something that a friend is doing. Think The Amazing Race but with (more) food, and S$400 instead of US$1,000,000. Hur hur.
It's for a good cause, right? :) You can check out the official website here. My friends are trying to convince me to join, because they insist that with me on the team, they're at least guaranteed a win in the food-eating part of the contest. Yeah yeah, very funny.

Another fun find. Grocery shopping is fun!
Remember good ol' Yan Yan biscuits?
To spice up the goodness, they now have "fun sticks" -- words and pictures on the biscuit sticks. Kinda like fortune cookies, but they make even less sense -- if that's possible.
On the one with the chocolate dip, the sticks say things like "Gallop away," followed by a little horse. And then there's "Go for a swim," followed by... well, I can't see it. Buy your own Yan Yan.
On the one with the strawberry dip, the sticks say "You are lucky today," but they also say "Star fish."
Don't ask me; I don't get it either.

maybe its meant to amuse children, who don't have a keen sense of logic as that of adults. I still eat Yan yan/Pocky though, strawberry!!
Confuse children is more like it. :p
(And don't tell, but I bought the Pockies after taking photos of them!)
I tell you, I love those snacks last time. The chocolate complete with the rice chocolate toppings. Super yummy man.
but I still feel a bit queasy when eating the strawberry cream one. It's like, when people see someone my age eating this pink coloured snack, they never fail to give me weird stares! Grrrr.
Then eat it in private lah! :p
