BEST TEOCHEW PORRIDGEBak Kwa Ice-cream
Perfect snack that's main course and dessert rolled in one sweet scoop! We heard about Seventh Heaven's salty-sweet creation and were intrigued. This unusual ice-cream flavour comes just in time for the Lunar New Year and is made from sea-salt ice-cream with Mexican chilli and bits of bacon bak kwa! You might want to call in advance to check if they still stock the sticky sweet stuff - apparently, supplies are limited and sell out super fast.Men Responsible for Beauty Industry Boost
These days, more men now lather up with body wash than soap. Body wash outsold bar soap for the first time ever last year, and Advertising Age reports that men are responsible.It should come as no surprise that new body washes for men dominate the shelves: What you guys use in the shower is a US$1.5-billion-dollar cut-throat business!
Which goes to show that life really is one great big soap opera!

Who are the Best Drivers?
Motorists who pass their driving test second time round are the safest on the roads, a study has revealed.The research also found that those who took more than two attempts to pass have more bad driving habits. Unsurprisingly, drivers who need four, five or six efforts before making the grade have the worst record behind the wheel.
But more importantly, researchers have found those who pass on their second attempt have fewer points on their licence, are less likely to suffer road rage or be stopped by police. They are also less prone to being cautioned for using their mobile phone behind the wheel, have had the fewest accidents in the last five years, and are unlikely to scare passengers with their driving.
Denise agrees heartily with these findings! Guess WHO passed their driving test on the second attempt?!
SAVE ABBEY ROAD STUDIOS!
The iconic Abbey Road studios, where the Beatles recorded, could be saved by the UK's National Trust which is an organisation that protects special places in England, Wales and Northern Ireland, for ever, for everyone.It's thought the famous studios - which gave the name to a Beatles 1969 album - could sell for between £10-30 million and even be turned into flats.
But now the National Trust say they could look at making an offer on the historic building, because of the level of public support they have seen.
The campaign to save the studios has received the backing of former Beatle Paul McCartney who could probably have paid for it with the music royalties he has earned in the time it took for you to listen to this story!
