Snippets of Singapore's Life
Sharing some sights of Singapore as the game feels very monotonous to me. To start off, this is a Peking opera I watch over the weekend. The stunt work of the Monkey King was impressive. http...

Love a Full English, also called A Fry-Up, though there can be a few variations due to personal tastes.
Sure you got:
Fried Egg; Sausage; Baked Beans; Bacon, fried or prefer grilled; Scrambled Egg; Poached Egg; Hash Browns, prefer grilled; Fried Onion; Fried Mushrooms; Tomatoes typically fried but not necessarily; and the, (I am sure I am mispronouncing this), pierce de resistance... BLACK PUDDING.
I don't like mushrooms or tomatoes and I give them a very wide berth, but the addition of pepper I did find most agreeable, I don't think it matters which colour pepper.
I think I have also had beetroot, cooked not pickled, though if there was no other choice.
Like I said, you get variations.
The main ingredients for Black Pudding are pig's blood and fat but can also have: onions, herbs, spices, egg yolk, meat, oats or barley.
They are said to be very good for you, not just because of the ingredients but also the high iron content in the blood.
I don't know what I was eating, I just knew I would have it again, unfortunately I only get to have it in a hotel breakfast.
They taste like sausage and are very tasty, the blood has been reduced down to a gloop so it binds it all together.
There are regional varieties in Britain, but also on the Continent such as French and others I believe.
I read there are other Blood Sausages such as ti-hoeh-koe from Taiwan, can you get these in Singapore and has anyone had them???
Interestingly and most bizarrely, Black Pudding is banned in the USA for, and I kid you not, "Sanitary reasons".
Considering what Americans do to their food, or even just to grow it, (Round-Up), and the gun availability and the national proclivity of going postal, but Black Pudding is banned because it's... Unclean???
Pigs have been a staple food here for centuries because so much of it can be eaten, I have heard of "Pig's Ears".
I don't know what they do though as I am not a big pork eater, I even cut the fat off bacon; but mixed into Black Pudding I don't experience its texture but I get the taste, similar too Haslet, which is a very nice cold sliced meat.
A Full English Breakfast is a guaranteed hangover cure, but someone has to get up and cook it first.
