  Remember sometime back there is this Australian Milo?
  
  Now they don't sell it anymore but they sell "Australian Recipe" Milo made in Singapore.
  
  Have you ever noticed that if you make "Milo Peng" with Aussie or Aussie Recipe milo you can never get the taste like if you make milo peng from the local recipe milo?
  
  Anyway, i bought myself both version of milo and try to make milo peng out of it. The aussie recipe is not as fragrant as the local one and making milo out of it makes it rather bland.
  
  So I looked at the ingredients to see why the diff and realised the difference is that local milo has Palm Oil and the Aussie one doesn't.
  
  Scary part is that after you drink finish, the residue in the local one tends to be oily while the aussie one doesn't.

  They still sell the Australian Milo, its much nicer due to the higher malt content.

  I noticed the Milo my dad bought recently was rather bland, turning the can over, i expected to see the usual Made in Malaysia label
  
  It was Made in Australia

  THat's funny.

  Nope, they got their own milo which is expensive and not a very widely drunk beverage.
  
  In US and Canada... the milo is imported from Jamaica. haha Also not widely drank.
  
  Drank or drunk? which is the grammatically correct one?

  the taste and smell of the MIA milo is much more better then MIM and MIS.
  Milo is not a Milo other then MIA.
  
  Take about counterfit goods, any Milo not MIA is counterfit.
