So one of the major negatives of Singapore is our fricking weather, where a thunderstorm could erupt suddenly on a scorching hot day. That coupled with how everywhere's air-conditioned because frick the heat means that we alternate between hot and cold temperatures the whole day... and I guess I finally succumbed and got the sniffles or covid or something, which was coincidentally after a trip to our fake snow city. Speaking of the fake snow area, how the frick are people able to wear masks outdoors in the cold? It was such a horrible experience, and I can't believe people are actually advocating for it. 
Much like in the West, a chicken soup is our go to for comfort food for when we're feeling under the weather, so maybe we're not that different after all. Then again I remember how cordyceps are literally a parasitic fungus that grows on caterpillars as I slurp them down, I guess we might be that different after all... Hmmm yummy

Close enough to the picture I guess... 
So dramautists, what's your favourite comfort food? Any unique ones in your culture that people should know about or try?

What does it taste like?

hmm.. a tasteless slice of a mushroom i guess. the better ones has that ginseng texture. they're already boiled for hours in soup so how they taste might have more to do with what else was in the soup..
