Shrimps have been so cheap lately, every supermarkets have it on sale, as cheap as $5 a pound for x-large or large shrimps, it got to make me wonder, why?! I checked my bag of shrimps and it said farm raised from CA. It made me feel safer because at least it is not farm raised from China or Vietnam. But seriously, is anything safe to eat these days? Fishes from Pacific Ocean is contaminated by the Japan radiation. Farm raised fishes or shrimps that were produced by China, Vietnam, India, etc were said to be very dirty because it were fed with feces from pigs or chicken. I don't know man... it seem like I either eat organic or become a vegetarian. Eat more veggies should be the better choice for now as eating more variety of fruit and vegetable is good for us. We can have occasional seafood, poultry or meat so that the diet is more balance but more towards vegetarian for future health. Reading as some of the chickens and pigs from the US are going to ship to China to process and package before it ship back to the US to sell to the US consumers, I don't know man. As the China guidelines and quality control might be in question. If you are what you eat, and what you eat matter, what should you be eating?

Glutinous Rice with Shredded Coconut
I like to make this easy kuih if I happen to crave for some Malaysian kuih-muih (Asian steamed/baked cake). You can either use a rice cooker or a steamer to make the bottom part of this kuih which is the glutinous rice. For this recipe, I will use a rice cooker to cook the rice since its more widely available in people house. Serve this as a dessert, snack or breakfast. This kuih should be finished in 3 days without refrigeration. The glutinous rice will harden when place in the refrigerator but you can always microwave it before consuming.
