This is Shu -Mu Made into vegatable chips. Buttery, crispy, and delicious. they only come around during the New year. Everyone loves these here in Malaysia.

This got me thinking about how In America we can get anything, anytime. but here food here has seasons. Mangosteen season, Rambutan, Durian, Longans all come at different times of the year. It's true you REALLY DO love something more when it's gone. (and here the fruit goes fast!)

As i was eating my chips and thinking about how I never really want anything because i can always go and get it at the market. We have an oversupply so much so that It doesn't even really matter what we eat anymore.

You know how when you and your friends get together and are all hanging out and then someone says,"Hey, lets go eat!" The next question is,"Where?" In some cases this could take hours to decide. We don't really want anything, we just want to eat. But, something in our minds wants something really awesome. But nothing is awesome cause we can get everything, anytime we want. We've taken for granted the wonders of capitalism and the ability to get whatever we want....and we savour and appreciate nothing.

Thats all for now I'm gonna go munch on my once per year chips =) bye all!

What kind of food do you miss?
