Beansprout, locally known as taugeh, has got to be one of the most divisive vegetables in existence. You either love them or simply can’t stand them.
For this Malaysian, it is the latter and unfortunately for the person, the fried noodle they bought from a hawker stall was not made in accordance with their “no taugeh” request.
Sharing to the JB 新山吹水站2.0 Facebook group on 5 November, the patron then shared 3 photos of how they meticulously removed all the beansprouts from the fried noodles one by one.
Moreover, the individual also counted every piece of taugeh that was inside the dish, which amounted to 92 pieces.
Not only that, they also arranged all the beansprouts to form a writing in Chinese which means “No bean sprouts”. Wah, this person got so much free time ah?
The post has been reshared on other social media platforms, including Xiaohongshu and garnered the attention of netizens.
From the photos shared, it seems that the person has the fondness to arrange stuff according to its type, as in the photo of the fried noodle dish, they not only separated all the beansprouts but also all the ingredients found inside the dish.
