Half of my fridge! The rest is all chocolates and snacks. Lol.
But just so you and i have a understanding that i also do take little steps to maintain a slightly more balanced diet (to convenience only), i have some fruits in my fridge all the time. It's meant for my doggies, my bf and i to share ^.^ So you see some kiwi fruits and apples in there.
Then there's mineral water. Which is a MUST-HAVE for me! I cannot be thirsty and be without plain water! Or i'd be really cranky and feel very insecure. Lol.
Then.. There's yogurt for the doggies.. And some fruity packet drinks we both love. So we'd always serve our guests this few flavours, and this few flavours only. LOL. Okay maybe sometimes got soya bean drink.
AND VITAGEN!!!! =DDD
And you also see two bottles of wine-like drink. It's actually white grape sparkling fruit juice. Lol. Can act all adult-ish with it. Haha.
And milk!!! =DDD To go with cereal mainly but i love milk on its own too!
Now i have a question.. Where does the milk that we drink, come from?
Do you ever check that?
Ten thousand brands on the shelves.
And i took this picture in a small supermarket. Imagine the twenty thousands more brands that full-fledged supermarts are carrying!!
I asked around amongst my friends and family and some of my relatives, if they were to choose to drink milk from Indonesia, Thailand or Australia, where would they choose. Like ALL of them chosed Australia.
Why am i not surprised?! I know you would be with the majority too!
But now the thing is.. How many of you actually do check where the milk is from? For once I'm brand-conscious when it comes to things like that! Erm.. Anything too cheap, i won't take. Anything too expensive, i also won't take. Lol.
Displaying the typical Singaporean (auntie) spirit, i am all out for reputable, trusted brands and quality products at reasonable prices!
Eh, clothes, shoes and accessories, cheap, never mind. The worst that can happen is for those to break easily and you throw them away, problem solved. But food and beverages that we consume cannot be stingy one! Cox it goes right into our body!
I shall do my own mini poll with the people around me to check if they know which countries the brands of the fresh milk commonly found over-the-shelf are from! Most of them are guessing by the look of the packaging or guessing by the name. LOL. My friends super shallow one.
Some answer by remember some old TV ads. Which.. I think in some ways.. Could have been misleading to start with. Anyway! Here's all the convo!!!

My sister and i on Facebook chat, you know, the thing youngsters do, I DO. Lol. Very much like me, my sister uses "Don't know" very easily. Lol.
AHEM, young people uses wassap too. Lol. Carrie making her best guess.
Yuzhen is mad, still so confident say "I hope im correct" Er, no? Lolol.
But i still LOVE YOU NAH! ^.^
Most of them thought Meiji fresh milk is from Japan, and Magnolia is from Singapore/ Australia and that Greenfields is from Australia.
For several days i didn't stop asking around (becox it feels good to ask, and people give you the wrong answer and then you can tell them the right answers and feeling smarter for a few seconds LOL) verbally and it's interesting how most people have the wrong idea of the countries of where their fresh milk is from, by judging from how their brand sound and by looking at where it's manufactured in.
I head to the supermarket to check it out for myself! Then come back home to do more search and research online. Here's a few of the more popular brands for fresh milk! Magnolia has been around, Meiji and Greenfields is known for being two of the most affordable brands for fresh milk.
Magnolia fresh milk states product of Singapore.
But Singapore does not have a milk farming industry apart from niche goat farms in Lim Chu Kang.
Most milk found on our supermarket shelves are imported in bulk form, from countries like Malaysia and Australia and packed in Singapore, while some others are packed and imported from Thailand and Indonesia.
Sometimes, the same brand of milk in 1L cartons and 2L bottles may come from different countries so one more reason to check where the milk you're consuming comes from!!!
And this is why on Magnolia fresh milk it is stated Product of Singapore, it's becox it's packed here.
But as to where the milk comes from, there really is ZERO results on the WHOLE internet except a few bloggers/ forumners expressing their encounter on calling Magnolia to try to find out but was told that it's confidential, and that they can only reveal that it's from all over Asia.
And Meiji fresh milk that almost everyone mistook for it coming from Japan, is from Thailand. Lol. I would think Akira (Singapore brand) appliances is made in Japan too.
This.. I'm sorry but it's the MOST misleading carton info for fresh milk i came across during the trip to check out all the milk.

Not saying anything about the quality of the milk, it's just the carton information is misleading. After a little bit of researching, i realise that it is true that their milk is from Australian dairy cows. BUT, those cows are imported from Australia, then kept and farmed in Indonesia, then the milk from these cows in Indonesia, is exported out to the rest of the countries.
Australian cows produce good milk but if they breathe / drink Indonesian air / water, the quality of milk cannot be considered 100% Australian quality anymore. Make sense?
And i'm not surprised now why this brand is the most affordable (yes, cheapest) brand of fresh milk on the shelf.
Why do consumers prefer fresh milk from Australia? Here are some reasons:
Cows in Australia get lots of fresh air, sunshine, and green pastures and these are the key ingredients and ideal conditions to produce high-quality and good-tasting fresh milk.
SO!!! For 100% FRESH AUSTRALIAN MILK, Introducing!!! *drumroll*

Here's a few quick tips to make the world's best scrambled egg according to ME. Lol.
- Beat the eggs with bowl tilted by 45 degree so more air can get in. And your scrambled eggs will be more fluffy instead of being hard and densely packed.
- Add some sea salt and pepper if you may like!
- Of course, only add good milk like Marigold FRESH Milk! =DDD
- Cook it only to 3/4 cook or slightly below that. Cox the eggs will continue to 'cook' with the residual heat after you remove from pans. And overcooked scrambled eggs are dry and hard.
So there you have!
This picture doesn't do my World's Best scrambled egg justice -.-
So here's the close up! ^.^ Hungry not!
And easy pancake mix that only require us to add eggs and MILK!!! ^.^
I added Marigold FRESH Milk to the batter but it's a bowl of mess so i rather not show it. Plus everyone say the look of my pancakes fail =(( Say it looks like carrot cake more than pancake. BUT IT TASTE GOOD OKAY!!! I just don't know how to control the heat that's all!!! Don't be deceived by the look of it!!! *defensive*
"我很醜~ 可是我很文柔~" Lol! I EAT IT MYSELF TO PROVE! Lolol. Going along with it, a cup of Marigold fresh milk ^.^
Gonna end this post soon and realise that Vitagen and Marigold is from the same company. Maybe all the stickers i'm collecting can be exchanged for more Marigold FRESH Milk! =DDD
