The moment I saw the familiar dark blue box, my visceral response was\u00a0ignited\u00a0and I sprang,\u00a0literally, with joy. It has survived the cruel fate that was to be for so many other childhood toys and snacks.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><!--more--><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This little rectangular box costed S$0.45, no doubt cheap by local standards, but it&#8217;s not exactly cheap to have to pay S$0.10 for every choco-ball you eat. You&#8217;ve guessed it. There were only 4 undersized, malnourished-looking, pathetic, not-so-round chocolate rice balls in the diminutive transparent packet to munch on. Plus, there is a piece of toy &#8211; a roller whale &#8211; which, you&#8217;re right again,\u00a0couldn&#8217;t roll. Notwithstanding such spoilers after the initial exhilaration, I decided that it was still fun savouring some of the fond memories that came back in time\u00a0for a visit.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Perhaps another good piece of information for Doraemon die-hard fans is that the Doraemon cartoon is currently showing every Sunday morning\u00a0on Channel 8, at 09.30am. Beloved Doraemon does have magical powers after all.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/peepor.net\/pint\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/07\/doraemon_friends.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-1060\" title=\"Doraemon and Friends\" alt=\"Doraemon and Friends\" src=\"https:\/\/peepor.net\/pint\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/07\/doraemon_friends.jpg\" width=\"650\" height=\"488\" srcset=\"https:\/\/peepor.net\/pint\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/07\/doraemon_friends.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/peepor.net\/pint\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/07\/doraemon_friends-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<div id=\"wp_fb_like_button\" style=\"margin:5px 5px 5px 0;float:left;height:40px;\"><script src=\"https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/all.js#xfbml=1\"><\/script><fb:like href=\"https:\/\/peepor.net\/pint\/blog\/?p=1057\" send=\"true\" layout=\"button_count\" width=\"450\" show_faces=\"true\" font=\"verdana\" action=\"like\" colorscheme=\"light\"><\/fb:like><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I was not anticipating Sheng Siong to have the capability to display such unexpected surprises for supposedly adult customers.
