a tribute to canned chunks of chicken breast

oh wow. JOSHUA LAM. that's a first from you. i am glad i look like... me. :) how's the med-school treating you?

and of course i did watch justin timberlake, ILI HAZWANI. it really shouldn't be a guilty pleasure. he is a legitimate entertainer.

and SHEELA CHEONG, you have facebook to distract you enough.

ALVIN LOKE, the future of Singapore. i am excited to see you in this part of the world.

and lastly to HARRIS TEETER's CANNED CHUNKS OF LIGHT (99% fat free) CHICKEN BREAST, you are the worst tasting chicken ever. i know right, this is the miserly life of a college student. if you consider the following SAT analogy
canned: tuna
tuna: tasty
canned tuna: tasty

you would think
canned: chicken
chicken: tasty
therefore, canned chicken: tasty

but i was so wrong my dears, it had the weirdest texture i have ever tasted. actually maybe a lack of texture. and tasteless, and it had a funny smell.

this reinforces my desire for the US to start importing Quorn-mycoprotein like our English friends. have you ever tasted them? they are rather glorious.

while i was eating those lowly chunks of wannabe-chicken, i couldn't help but think of home. and that very situation would never occur. why would i need to eat canned chicken chunks when i could walk out and buy goreng ayam (fried chicken) from the mamak fellow. my grandma would disown me if i actually bought canned chicken chunks.

so moral of the story my friends: go home and eat goreng ayam. don't ever resort to canned chicken chunks. tuna is the only way to go. that or mycoprotein.
