  All I had for lunch was a bowl of grapes and home grown cherry tomatoes.

  I'm still starving/hungry leh. I check out the cafe menu but nothing interesting. Anyways, I still have a banana, one orange and a pear. Maybe I'll stir a pack of quaker oats.
  
  But I do like your melted cheese on veggie. Hmmm.....yum yum. Got stir in some milk into it or not? Or just plain cheese?

  When I'm desperate I just layer on the cheese. Works really well

  I like melted cheese on crackers too. Must be Ritz crackers though.
  
  Have you taken your snack?
  
  I'm eating the oats now but it taste awful. It's apple & cinnamon. Brother, there are four packs in the box. Another three suffering moments.

  I understand not everyone eats dog meat. It's sort of a delicacy and there are many who can't bring themselves to eat that .... thank goodness!

  SAMGYUPSAL
  
  Samgyupsal, or grilled pork belly, is a popular Korean dish. It consists of pork bacon cut from the belly, served like Kalbi, sometimes cooked on a grill with kimchi troughs on either side. It is commonly grilled with garlic and onions, dipped in ssamjang and wrapped in ssangchu.
  
  * ssamjang - a korean dip or sauce
  * ssangchu - lettuce

  PATBINGSU
  
  Patbingsu is a Korean dessert made with ice shavings, adzuki bean, a variety of fresh fruits topped with whipped cream. Sometimes ice-cream, jujubes or rice cakes feature. It is served at almost every café, restaurant and fast food joint (like KFC & Burger King!).
  
  Usually presented in a large stemmed glass bowl, patbingsu is best enjoyed by mixing the ingredients together thoroughly and eating it quickly, before the ice melts. No two bowls of patbingsu are alike, the possibilities limited only by the fruits available – pineapples, kiwi, watermelon, oranges, berries … absolutely delicious and refreshing on a hot summer day!
