Remember this tom yam instant noodle from Thailand? I love it when I was in Malaysia and I still love it now. I don't eat it as often anymore because it's not a very healthy food, very high sodium content. :)
Since moving to the US, I don't have as much craving to eat supper here compared to Malaysia. Not sure why, perhaps the dinner portion here is bigger. Sometimes, I consciously choose a healthier alternative like milk or yogurt.
Anyway, the other day, I was feeling a tad hungry in the afternoon, so I cooked a packet of the noddles. I was eating on the kitchen countertop so that Olivia could not see what I was eating (she wants to eat whatever I'm eating). She saw the noodles anyway and kept saying 'pasta, pasta' (she thinks all noodles are pasta).
I didn't want to let her have it as it was spicy but she kept pestering me, so I gave her a bit of noodles (without the soup), hoping that the spiciness would stop her from wanting more. Well, I was wrong....she wanted more.
The noodles without the soup is also spicy, so I'm surprise she can tolerate it. I guess that's the Malaysian in her. :)

hv a great time exploring "spicy" food with lil olivia :-)
I haven't eaten any instant noodle in a while. Hubby decided Josh is not allowed to eat any junk food, fast food, soda, etc. He wants his son to eat healthy food. Yeah okay... we'll see about that.
There you go.... at young age Olivia already can tolerate spicy food, now you have a friend to eat Malaysian food. Lucky, very lucky. :)
Oh My GOSH...you know what, this was my FAVOURITE tom yam noodle as well!
Oh, it's so spicy but then that is what tom yam is all about!
Yes, there is certainly ALOT of msian in Olivia. GREAT that she can take spicy food too ya! How about hubby?
Oh yes! I love this tomyam maggi mee too! I like the size portion...just nice. Wow! Starting 'em young...can try curry chicken on her next. My boy loves them!
I like instant noodle too although it is not healthy, but it's fast. Sometimes when I come home from work hungry, that's the first thing I look for.
Long time no eat instant noodle...
