Any cheap soursop? Last time tpy got 1 place cheapest was 7 8/kg.

Nowadays no more. $10/kg so exp
I have bought from whole of Bedok:
Bedok north Bedok central Bedok reservoir etc Geylang Bahru Bendemeer Whampoa.

Finally found that Whampoa has ample consistent supply of soursop. It is like gold price. Hovering between S$10 to S$12 per kg

My niece recent small pox infection was speedily healed with orange juice, soursop and ling yong n pandadol.
She had 8 days MC and on 3rd day she was back to her computer games.
This time round, she guai guai ate the home cooked food in that 8 days.

After she returned to work, she completely ditch eating home cooked food prefering fast food.

Last week bought verbana portobello mushroom again. But this time seems I can't really enjoy it, the mushroom chunk quite big and black color, suddenly remind me of certain thing 🤢

Pork floss bread not as good as breadtalk.

I think will stick with banana/apple or sausage bread :ROFLMAO:
If you ever go Subway big box, try the Dona cafe. I love the walnut cranberry sourdough loaf. Get them slice for you and keep in freezer. Whenever you need some quick bite, just toss a slice into the microwave for 5 minutes will do.
Add Whatever topping you like. Some don’t like the hard crust but I love it as it takes longer to digest and longer to chew.

Very interesting wet market as the seafood selection is wide and varied.

I know of at least 4 places which sells. 10 to 12/kg is usual price. Too exp for me.
Next best to soursop as super fruits is pomegranates beside blueberries.
Buy from Indian grocer will yield you more fruits with thin skin.
Indian grocer also has a super fruits called Alma / Indian goose berry.
Don’t buy China ones. Thick skin and less fruits.

Orleng jus is best, kopi zeh always say must drink orleng jus :grin:
I buy the $2 cups from the machines occasionally, 4 oranges 1 shot. Some places like tourist attractions $3. Good or not? :o

Mai hiam buay pai lah, I guess...

Speaking of buay pai... @SongManKranji disappeared after returning from Melaka? Big boss went to find kopisoh huh? :crazy:

Oh, speaking of orange juice machine, IIRC there's one somewhere basement of IKEA Tebrau? Or gone already...?
