Favourite Food In Your State or Country - MeMe

Posted in Uncategorized on May 23rd, 2007, 9:50 am by yenjai

This is really a MeMe week. ( I have to clear 3 Meme in this week. Really can faint after all these)

Got tagged by our hardworking student who is always organizing some events for the benefit of International students in Perth…. the not so complicated kokadoodle.

I am supposed to write what is my favourite food. Hmm…

As everyone wrote about ‘cooked food’, let me write something different.

My favourite ‘food’ is this.

Open up, and you will get these.

Why do I like it so much?

I remembered some famous guy once said: Your most memorable food (and which you crave always) will be the food you taken when you were poor.

When I was young, and when mum was not at home, I will rummage through our food cupboard. If I can find bread, I will take it. If I find some creamcracker, I will take it.

Sometimes to my delight, I can find 豆沙饼 (dou sha bing) in the cupboard. That, I couldn’t finish alone. I would have to divide it into three equal share (3 kids in the family).

Fast forward. After I move to KL, I can hardly find any dou sha bing which has similar taste. All those in the market are tasting too … modern. They lack the 家乡 (village) taste,and clashed badly with my childhood memory.

So you can imagine my delight when I finally found the brand 三叔公。 It really produce the taste faithfully, just like old time.
