Dainty Aqua Posted November 10, 2005 Posted November 10, 2005 1) bubble gums (they are banned in my country) 2) milk shakes at MacDonald's (they were taken out while I was growing up. What the heck!) 3) strawberry cheesecake at KFC (again, they were taken out while I was growing up, for reasons I cannot even comprehend)
ShoubraStreet74 Posted November 10, 2005 Posted November 10, 2005 I miss Simpsons episodes that are actually funny! I gave up hope a few years ago...
Hattuchili Posted November 10, 2005 Posted November 10, 2005 1) bubble gums (they are banned in my country) Umm, bubble gum is banned in your country? Why? However, I miss my old apartment and I miss the good old "Deutsche Mark"! Now we all have the damn "Euro" and everything is much more expensive! --Sören
crispy Posted November 10, 2005 Posted November 10, 2005 WOW, it IS illegal, look I got this from this article, here is the link to the full story CLICK IT, it has alot more information about Singapore, and whats legal and not legal http://www.jessegordon.com/Spectrum/bubble.htm Importing, manufacturing, and selling gum are illegal in Singapore. Gum chewing is itself legal, as long as you haven't imported, manufactured, or bought it. Gum is a "perennial nuisance," declares the Ministry of the Environment, which administers the chewing gum ban. Ostensibly, the reason is to keep the streets clean, and because gum could jam up the operations of subway car doors. The ban initially was considered only on the subway system, where smoking, spitting, and all sorts of other activities are already banned. Rumor has it that the real reason gum was banned is because a prominent legislator sat down on a sticky wad on a subway seat in his best suit.
Dainty Aqua Posted November 10, 2005 Posted November 10, 2005 ^^ hi Soren, actually I mentioned this in another bubble gum thread a while back but no problem, here's the reason again. Quote: "Anyway, for those of you who have no idea, Singapore had banned all types of gums here since many yrs back!!! No CRAP! They used to be legal/allowed here but they were banned becos apparently ppl are littering the streets w gums all over the places. And Singapore being a green green city & a "fine" country (fine becos my country likes to impose fines at e tiniest & most trivial offenses), decide to do away with chewing/bubble gums totally & permanently! "
Dainty Aqua Posted November 10, 2005 Posted November 10, 2005 Gum chewing is itself legal ^ LMAO! :shock: Please tell me how in the world am I going to legally chew gums when I cant buy it in stores unless I want to risk sitting in a cold cell?! I wanna migrate!
Chrissie Posted November 10, 2005 Posted November 10, 2005 ^Man that sucks! Lol I also miss "Old Skool" TV Shows... California Dreams (Sooo Good) Saved By The Bell -( They still show it on Nickelodeon but not that often ) FRIENDS! I really wish they would make a Christmas special or something coz Joey was Dire
crispy Posted November 10, 2005 Posted November 10, 2005 LOL, yeah, its technically legal, as long as you didn't manufacture, buy or sell it, HMMMM?, ok, so it legal, as long as you have had it since before the ban I gues, LOL so VERY old gum is OK ENJOY
CoasterFanatic Posted November 10, 2005 Posted November 10, 2005 "Anyway, for those of you who have no idea, Singapore had banned all types of gums here since many yrs back!!! No CRAP! Is there a black market on gum in your country. We could make a fortunate through international mail! // as long as the punishment is not public caning

Kroger8 Posted November 10, 2005 Author Posted November 10, 2005 You want surge? Coca Cola is testing out a new pop on the market in select areas called "Vault". Reports from Surge fanatics is that it tastes very similar, if not exactly the same. You can really only get it now on eBay. Search for "Coca Cola Vault" and youll find it. I think Im going to purchase some just to see. Plus, if it fails, youve got a little collectors item. (But if its as good as surge, I couldnt not drink every last drop) I live in one of the areas that they are testing, and got to try Vault a couple of nights ago and love it!! It tastes a lot like Surge, but not exactly, but it smells just like it!
ebl Posted November 10, 2005 Posted November 10, 2005 ^ Is it green like Surge? That was one...interesting color. Eric
Kroger8 Posted November 10, 2005 Author Posted November 10, 2005 ^It is definitely green, but it isn't as dark as I remember Surge, I think Vault is a little lighter actually...
