Kaka Snack Strikes Back
A colleague surprised me yesterday morning by giving this snack I used to eat when I was in primary school. My oh my, I thought this snack had altogether disappeared but it made a comeback in Tampines. Anyways looking at the packaging itself brought fond memories of my schooling days. And no wonder I was so skinny - I ate too much of these!
If Kaka had a frequency card for kids back then.
Come to think of it, this snack survives but not my old school. Permaisura Primary is defunct. The building is still there but its now a part of New Town Primary School. And no there weren't any little toys inside this Kaka. Time has changed. I used covet the little toys in them. Even my colleague was a fan. Well this assured me that I did lead a normal childhood.
Kids nowadays spent a fortune at McDonald's or Burger King to get movie tie-in merchandise. If only they had a frequency card for loyal Kakaist like me and my colleague.

With the new technology edge, one can search for 'old stuff'. I was searching for information on my old primary school 'Permaisura' and came to your website. Hmmm... fancy coming across people from this old school. I have a feeling you arent the pioneers from that school as I am. Your photo looks like a younger guy. Jackie
