Cooking Oil Rationing

There is cooking oil rush nationwide when the Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs Ministry announced shortage of cooking oil and limited consumers to buy a 5kg cooking oil at one move. This rationing will not affect my family as we are always on healthy diet. Less frying and we loves steamed food.

Steamed foods are more healthy than oily fried food. I guess it is the time for us to eat more steamed foods rather than using oil to cook. If you like fried chicken, you may consider pan fried without oil or pan grilled. The fat in the chicken will be melted and flow out of the meat making it more healthy. It is also very delicious too.

Salad made of fresh vegetables with delicious Italian sauces is another healthy food too. The vitamins in the vegetables will not be destroyed by heat. Our children love salad as well.

The rationing will encourage more hawkers to recycle cooking oil. So, avoid fried foods like goreng pisang (fried banana) and fried chicken.

A change of your diet is not only good for your health, it is also good for your economy. Save more money rather than funding cooking oil producers and hypermarket! Why is there a sudden shortage? To raise price!
