Fruit Juices

One of the changes made to my diet has been to consume more fruits. Kiwis are supposed to reduce blood pressure so I've been trying to fit one into my diet when I get to visit the hawker centre. The darn things are so expensive though - they are being sold at $1.50 each. The profit margins must be pretty amazing.

For good measure, I've also replaced my daily cuppas of tea, grass jelly drinks and packet drinks with a single cup of fruit juice. Tried combination number 7 - mango and milk but that didn't really catch my fancy so I switched to number 29 - pineapple and rock melon, that went down a lot better.

As I was taking the picture below, the Fruit Juice Aunty wanted to make sure I was just using the picture for my own reference. When I assured her that that was my intention, she opened up, sharing that she had an album of another 100 combinations that she had not had the time to put up. 100 combinations! It's like playing the game of Alchemy (found a playable version on the web, try it out)

It is weird though because my late uncle used to sell fruit and juices but I never remembered his business thriving in the manner of this stall I was patronising. Perhaps it had to do with location. Hmmnn.
