Coconut Oil
Adaptation

I liked to take coconut jelly. I might take four of them in a week. I bought it from the supermarket at S42.85 each. But I stopped taking for more than a month recently. It was because the price changed to S$3.45 each.

I read too many articles about the benefits of taking fruits and herb on Internet. I did not pay much attention to those articles anymore. But I had started to notice the articles on the benefits of coconut oil since I stopped taking coconut jelly.

I was serious to take note of ageing when getting old.
I learned that coconut oil could help slowing down ageing, moisturizing our skin, losing weight and fighting against bacteria.
Although I am not fat, I like to be slim and have fewer wrinkles. I also hope that I will not be ageing so fast. Therefore I think I can try using coconut oil.

I went to Mustafa Centre to look for coconut oil. I bought a bottle on 20 April. I applied the oil on my legs. It helped. Then I applied it on my hair and I was happy with the effect.

I did not know how to make use of the coconut oil on meal, so I thought of coconut oil spread. I ever took lecithin few years ago. I bought the lecithin spread and took it with bread in the morning. So I went to Mustafa Centre again to look for coconut oil spread. As I seldom took bread in the morning recently, I then applied the coconut oil spread on biscuits and took as supper.

I changed from taking coconut jelly to taking coconut oil spread. It was because I was forced to do so.
I was disgusted with the unreasonable price increase. I used to take honey peanuts and it was 50 cents per package. It was just nice for me to take a package at one time. So I was almost the sole buyer of honey peanuts.
One day when I realised that it was 65 cents per package, I was very surprised.
From that day on, I did not take honey peanuts anymore.

When I heard people said about "unscrupulous merchant (奸商)", I did not have any feeling then.
But when the prices for my favourite honey peanuts and coconut jelly increased unreasonably, I understood what unscrupulous merchant was.

We are adaptable!
