The Ghost Pepper Combo Pack Has Landed In Singapore
If you think you have a high tolerance for spicy food — wait till you try the Daebak Ghost Pepper Cola.
The Ghost Pepper Cola was first launched in Malaysia last year as part of a Halloween combo pack that includes the Ghost Pepper Noodles Spicy Chicken Noodles. The drink took the Internet by storm and immolated those brave enough to try it and is dubbed the most insane drink ever.
It has now made its way to Singapore and is available at Sheng Siong supermarkets at $3.95 a pack. You will get both the cola and cup noodles in the combo pack.
We tried to see if it lives up to its name and we got completely destroyed on the first sip. Well, to be fair, it does tastes like cola but with a lot of chilli padi. Alas, we did not manage to finish the entire can.
Anyone who is up for the challenge can try the zesty drink. But warning! Consume at your own risk!

Good day, folks! It’s Thursday, which means it’s time to thirst for new deals at FairPrice to mark the last week of March.
For those heading to get their groceries within this weekend, check out these 4-day special deals from 25 to 28 March at selected neighbourhood outlets:
Now, back to our usual business. This week, loyal shoppers may look forward to discounted deals on Häagen-Dazs ice cream pints, Indomie assorted mi goreng, and more items. Let’s get started!
This promotion is as good as it can get. Originally at S$14.50 a pint, you get to bag home a tub at only S$8.33 if you buy 3 at a go. That’s a whopping 42% savings, mind you! Mix and match your favourite flavours or try new ones for a change. This classic ice cream is crafted from real cream and milk combined with quality coffee that won’t allow you to stop at one scoop, so beware of that caffeine rush.
Stocktake your pantry and see if you’re running out of your favourite Indomie mi goreng instant noodles. If yes, now’s the time to do a restock! Apart from the original and special variations, there are also rendang and hot & spicy ones to reward your taste buds with something different this week. A quick meal at only S$0.32? Count us in!
Bakery store-bought cakes may be tempting, but it can be challenging for calorie-watchers to add those numbers up. Do you share the same woes as we do? Then why not consider frozen cakes? Each Philadelphia Classic Cheesecake has been pre-sliced into 10 portions. According to the breakdown, a piece is yours to enjoy at only 275 calories. There’s also the oreo-flavoured version for those who prefer theirs with cookie bits.
#4: Flying Wheel Spicy Abalone
Now: S$4.80
Usual Price: S$10.50
Savings: S$5.70
The Lunar New Year may be long over, but abalones can still be part of our delicacy for the rest of the year. We’ve personally tried the Flying Wheel Spicy Abalone, and oh gosh, the spices are really addictive. We’re not sure how you usually like to have your abalone, but it’s yummy to serve it with a warm bowl of plain porridge. That makes a hearty meal rather than turning to fast food delivery all the time to fill the tummy.
Speaking of fast food, why not make an effort to eat a little healthier now that we’re approaching the second quarter of 2021? A serving of this saba fillet has only 70 calories. Pop it into the air fryer and serve it with rice for a satisfying meal. Or, if you have more time at hand, pan grill it to perfection and have it as a snack alongside some refreshing beer.
Not all the abovementioned products are available at fairprice.com.sg. Head down to the stores to get your items by 31 March!
