Here I am, all decided to have lunch at mid valley food court on a hot afternoon.. i knew where i could get some grass and all i could hear was my croacking tum tum..
I can have my lion’s share of vegetables for the day.. I order half rice.. with 2 vegetable and 2 mock meat.. (oink oink.. I was a pig that day).. and as I head to the counter.. I got prepared with RM6.. thinking that’s how much it will be.. to my horror.. after some punching in.. the Indonesian cashier told me that the total was RM8.95.. I thought I heard her wrong.. and she probably thought I was stupid and repeated 'lapan sembilan puluh
Moving on.. its funny how we grew up all your lives with Nestle’s Maggie Mee Curry Flavour.. I remember the days my mum used to make them for us.. Another horror awaits those vegetarians when you pore through the ingredients you find Traces: Crustacea, Fish, milk, celery and mustard.
Yes yes.. go home and check your pack of Maggie Mee.. be it curry or any other flavour.. When I first read it.. I went on a denial mode.. how can that be.. though eventually the truth did sink in.. but it was too late.. the world came crumbling down already..
Its been my comfort food.. its been something that you eat when you are lazy to go out or prepare something for yourself… Its every single person’s gastronomic meal.. it takes 2 minutes to prepare and it has 3 steps..
Step 1 – Throw everything into a pan with some water (Optional to add eggs or vegetables).
Step 2 – Wait for 2 minutes for the noodles to cook..
Step 3 – Chomp your way..
Now all my hopes dashed what I thought was vegetarian is not anymore.. Deception it creeps in when you least expect it.. I would now be doomed if I don’t look at the ingredients of every item I buy at the supermarket.. Only God knows what else they will be putting inside..
Wise or Otherwise.. I am still wondering now….
in love, light and bliss.. slightly confused as well..
