My bf, housemate and I can eat breadtop (buns etc) for breakfast, lunch and dinner! But yes, I think you are right about the singapore breadtalk thing though? I saw them when I went to Singapore at the end of 2004 and found them when I came back to Melbourne. Might be a conspiracy going on. I wonder who's ripping off who? The next time you go, try the Almond Twist thingy. It's a tad sweet but not bad from an asian bakery. :) I love breadtop!

I've not had a banana for a very long time. Btw, I really like your new cafepress bag. I have heard that same rumour. I’ve not had a banana for a very long time.

It might be worth a look, but I cannot vouch for the truth of this as I haven't checked it out myself. I think they have them at Macro.
