Bean sprouts, those slender, crunchy additions, often feature in a wide range of Asian dishes, but they can be a real downer for those who don’t fancy them.
Recently, a Malaysian shared a post saying that he pulled out 92 bean sprouts from his fried noodles, despite instructing the hawker not to include them.
What made it even more intriguing was the meticulous manner in which he arranged them one by one.
M’sian complains about bean sprouts
Sharing his bean sprout-free noodles experience in the Facebook group JB 新山吹水站2.0, the OP vented about how the hawker added bean sprouts even after he asked them not to.
In the caption of this post, the person says, “I told the boss not to include bean sprouts in the fried noodles.”
While many would simply set them aside, but this person chose to take a more unconventional path.
The OP diligently removed each and every bean sprout from the fried noodles, precisely arranged them, and even counted them one by one.
“He ended up putting 92 of them (bean sprouts)” the person continued.
The way the OP did it with such precision and dedication caught the eye of many netizens.
Netizens were amused by this man’s act
“I thought it was an insect.”
“You still have the ability to pick it out. If it were me, I wouldn’t eat it and eat something else.”
“I would like to know if anyone actually counts the bean sprouts in the picture.”
“Wow, I thought it was a bug.”
On the flip side, netizens couldn’t help but applaud the guy’s incredible patience as he painstakingly plucked, counted, and even nicely arranged those bean sprouts one by one.
“I can see that you are very patient and can pick out the bean sprouts one by one.”
“It’s so awesome, you picked them out one by one.”
Some netizens got crafty, flaunting their bean sprout arranging skills, like setting “Don’t want bean sprouts” with the sprouts in the comments.
Even though the guy’s bean sprout-sorting act might have been an eyesore, it definitely brought a smile to many.
