The nation getting FAT

Malaysians are a lucky lot. Many contries in the world, don't have mamak stalls such at this...

open till the wee hours of the morning. By wee I mean 3/4 am. And its not just Mamak stalls...its any kinda food you want. Prawn mee ke, Nasi goreng ke or even Thong Sui stalls and eating places are open till very late at night. Is it any wonder then, that our people are getting fat? I bet in our parents time, by 11 pm they would have gone to bed, let alone be up at 3/4 am gorging on Maggi goreng. Times have changed.

It was just a few days ago that I read somewhere that though more and more gyms are opening up, people are actually getting less healthy. I guess its true, you are what you eat.


The pic above is a special Maggi goreng, fried with a special ikan bilis sambal which is very good. This is from a stall in Jinjang...yea, BH knows where to go for food allright.

Anyways, its amazing the kind of food we get, at any hour of the day. BH and his "food" blog is explanation enough as to why we both need to hit the gym more often...hehehehe.
