I saw the most hideous looking thing in a shopping center in Chinatown in Singapore!
Eww! What the hell is it?! Looks like some kind of hairy caterpillar or grub crawling in dirt!
Worse still it's edible! Of course it's none organic coz it's some sort of sweet made with peanuts. Tastes delicious like 'kern therng'. I don't know what it's called but if you do please leave me a comment and let me know ya!
This will be my last post on my Visit Malaysia/Singapore Year 2007. Sorry you had to put up for so long reading boring posts on my trip, I promise you won't get anymore post on my trip again but more on local events here in Melbourne from now on. Have a great week ahead!

Reminds me of book Catch 22, they had cotten and they covered it in chocolate to try to make cotten candy! :-)
[Cotten Candy is what Aussies call Fairy Floss. Spun sugar, similar to Dragon Candy!] :-)
In mandarin, it is called dragon beard candy. Made from Malt sugar. No rocket science, just hard work. Just stuff the malt sugar on top of flour and keep pulling, flip back, pull.... Like making Ramen.
LOONG SOU THONG!!! I love it! I used to eat them when I was in HK, not always though, as it's not a cheap treat :P Oh, how I miss it..
