  thing is, a lot of people out there love it when they cram the mooncake with shitloads of egg yolks.. 

  and that person may think they're doing udon a favour by buying the multiple egg yolk ones

  people in my office are still kinda resistant to "content/quality over brand"

  even when they realised that the mooncakes from Goodwood or Four Seasons or whatever were vastly inferior to a no-brand neighbourhood shop which one of the clerks bought the similar item from...

  they would still go to bloody expensive ones which cost about 5x more than the neighbourhood shop one..

  I do not see the point in the whole detoxing thing. Either you clean up your diet or you don't!

  Reading the F&N and Coca Cola's statement back in Q2... Apprarently I've been hearing they're going seperate ways end of this year for distribution channel

  There goes Season Ice Lemon Tea w/ Coca Cola in picture. Seems in e statement, they wun go compete against each other either. Likely there goes the possible return of Fanta

  Talking abt it, I remembered the fruit juice from F&N tat came in cups back in the 1980s

  I'll just stick to live streaming on Sopcast....

  Sometimes I get Spanish commentary, and the video quality sucks....

  But just too bad; I really don't see the point in buying one huge multi-tiered birthday cake just to eat the cherry at the very top.
