Holy shit, every time I'm reminded of this book and film franchise just everything about it just fills me with absolute white-hot hate. I feel like someone superglued They Live sunglasses to my head; every single person involved in writing, filming and promoting of this filth, and their circle of family and friends, gets cultural revolutioned the moment I find a way to resurrect Mao.

    Bro, I’m just a humble Malaysian communist netizen carrying out my patriotic duty of dunking on Singaporean food culture. I believe that it was enshrined in the 1965 constitutional amendments that each Malaysian has the fundamental right to cyberbully at least one Singaporean per week, especially if they say something completely ignorant like “Singaporean food culture”?

    Ah comrade, my mistake. Carry on then. My response was a kneejerk reply to chauvinist white people talking about things they don't understand, which was what I had you pegged as, but clearly that was my own assumptions talking and I sincerely apologize for coming out so antagonistic.

    Because yah lah, Singaporean food culture is just stolen Malaysian food culture. Like the entire country, basically.

    I’m really worried about the state of Singaporean food if Singaporean hawkers regularly serve nasi lemak with green rice.

    Errr.....

    But seriously tho it's not that rare to get green rice, especially with nasi lemak. I don't think they dye it, it's just the pandan leaf juice getting cooked into the rice.

      Yeah I don't doubt that green pandan rice exists. Call my taste buds conservative, but I just can't imagine it being served as as part of hawker stall chicken rice / nasi lemak. Was really weirded out that one time years ago when I ordered chicken rice at a Singaporean hawker centre and got what seemed like a green eggs and ham interpretation of it.

          "Omputeh" is Malay language contraction / slang for "orang putih / orang puteh", literally meaning white person.
