I was just touring a nearby food fair to check it out without any expectations at all. The last time I went to a food fair, I ended up hungry because I hate most of the food. Now you can tell how finicky I am! =P Now back to the story, to my surprise, it was full of people from all walks of life (though thay are just students) and there were many food with many colors and flavors prepared by people from the local, Nigeria, Middle Eastern, China and such. To begin with, the place was filled with different aromas of food and I kinda hated it (my clothes smell of food) but the food and drinks were way better than pasar malam food. Among the food available were otak-otak, cakes, muffins, burgers, fruits, pastas, shakes and so much more! *I'm excited now!*
So I bought a giant sandwich which costs me RM6. What I realized was how cooperative and happy people are when it comes to food. I strongly believe that food do bring people together regardless of whether they're vegetarians or non-vegetarians. There is something for everyone. It's just a matter of coming up with something that's acceptable for everyone. What is meeting without rempeyek? What is hanging out without teh tarik? What is gathering without steamboat? What is offering prayers without fruits? See the connection? I'm starting to believe that I should be dealing with food instead of 'monkeys'. LOL.
*A big bite on my sandwich left a long trail of mustard down my chin...and shirt =.=' ---> XD*
