  I'm still buying the same things

  And I have been buying frozen meats even before AVA started promoting frozen meat so I dun see the difference.

  Sianz...i was at NTUC las weekend....decided to attempt to adjust my lifestyle....so instead of Pokka Green Tea at $1.80 per bottle, I went for Yeo's Jasmine Green Tea for $1.45.

  Maybe next time I should learn to concoct my own Jasmine Green Tea since those commercial brew has no perservatives, flavouring and colouring.

  Any receipe to recommend?

  I was at AMK S11 (the one beside Mc), ordered Chicken lice, and guess what??? That guy super smashed the breast meat until like paper thin before stacking it above layers of thinly sliced cucumbers!

  The entire plate looked like some kid's meal. Yeah, there's soup...with some green leaves and shallots drown in it.
