Actually u forgot 1 more fish craze in the long past....There was 2... One was the luohan fish craze, some malaysian fish breeders took Cichlids, a family of fishes and crossed bred them. Something like cross breeding persians cats, siamese cats and what other breed you like. Result was this aggressive, humped head, patterned fish that they marketed as a mystical fish from heaven with the ability to give luck to its owners. We then saw next stories in tabloid papers of fishes that gave 4D numbers etc... In its hey day, every neighbourhood had a fish shop with tanks and tanks of baby luohans... some even were priced at thousands of dollars....
Second one was the marine fish aka Nemo craze. After the show Finding Nemo came out, again shops sprung up all over the island selling marine fish. Although marine fish keeping is a science in its own. These shops hookwinked the gullible customers by selling them "all in one" mini tanks and say that now technology very advanced, no need large tank, no need strong filtration system.. just put in this 30 or 40 over dollar sand and volia you have marine fish tank. If fish die, then they will say, you dont know how to keep fish but never mind buy some more!!
Honestly I really pity the uncountable fishes and verterbrates that died for nothing in these two crazes.
As for the donut craze, I dont understand, when dunkin donuts was here, no one even bothered about it except maybe a select few like me. So it had to close, now we have donuts that smell like dunkin donuts and are not as nice as dunkin donuts and we have people wasting their 3 hours queing for it? Tsk tsk tsk
The Apple Strudel thing wasn't as hot. But yes, the Hello Kitty was crazy. Ppl are literally THROWING AWAY PERFECTLY GOOD FOOD.johnlim said:Because Singaporeans are nuts. They like to follow the crowd.
This thing will die one day, like Hello Kitty, Roti Boy, Apple Struddel,.........

Hahaha... quite a few of my Malaysian friends have commented more than once - any food that Singaporeans queue up for is guaranteed to be not that good. :bsmilie: :bsmilie:

Gim Leng (or Arowanas)...
What crazes are there? Diamond Water hype, Lingzhi hype, the supposed 'millions' one can make with Pyramid Selling (or the modified version - MLM).
How many ppl got sucker punch by these huh? ;p
Because Singaporeans are nuts. They like to follow the crowd.

I love Mister Donut!I tried the one at Raffles City before, not really that fantastic. Maybe it's because word of mouth advertising is very powerful. What I wish is for Mister Donut to come to Singapore. They've got really nice donuts, both taste and looks! :bsmilie:
