FOOD GALORE!

You guys should visit foodgawker.com to witness a neverending gastronomical (optically) feast! It provides awesome links to other food blogs around the world. There are over 3000+ pages of links, take your time and enjoy the immense delight of food (for your eyes) :D

Nasty!

Let me attest to the corny, but very factual statement 'Money is the root of all evil'. Apparently my uncle had been conned by the local fishmongers in Hong Kong who unscrupulously labelled 'oilfish' as its pricey counterparty 'codfish'. Oilfish is a fish that highly resembles codfish in terms of appearance and taste but it contains some nasty indigestible wax esters (the stuff that contributes to the oilyness of the creature) that will bring laxative side effects. Enough said, you guys should know what happened after I've consumed that darn thing. It grossed me out, like how I'm so disgusted by the dirty dealings carried out by those selfish fishmongers.

Remember to differentiate between codfish and oilfish before making your purchase. More information is available on Google.com :)
