foochow stir-fried noodles... an imminent price hike...

by now, everyone knows that the 30 sens per kg hike on the yellow hokkien noodles used to prepare the foochow stir-fried noodles will effectively cause the average plate of this particular noodles to be hiked by... YES... you've guessed it... 30 sens...

on average, such a plate of noodles is around rm2.50... so come May 1, 2007 this plate of noodles will cost from RM2.80 on average... of course some other places will have it for less or more but the average price will go up...

which is really interesting, because 1kg of noodles can probably make around 3 plates, by my estimates but i could be wrong... so if that is the case, then per plate rise should be around 10 sens... the association that controls the hawkers etc, sure is powerful... advocating such a price hike when most people are getting by average salaries and no increment...

seeing as i am in a preachy mood, PLEASE CUT DOWN YOUR CONSUMPTION OF SUGAR... it is not good for you... moderate cuts in white sugar could lead to longevity... also sugar is an aging agent... so those ladies out there who want to look young... less sugar is one step towards your goal...
