Why Salted Egg Chips Are So Addictive

I always remember a story from a friend about salted egg chips and this has something to do with the most popular snacks in Singapore right now. This started when she took a trip to Singapore; she was quite surprised to see to see a long line of people buying salted egg fish skin in a store in Singapore. At first, she thought it was a line for a movie house but she was really surprised to see it is for this particular store. She was really wondering what makes it very special and why people really stay in queue for them to buy one bag of that snack. So she decided to line up as well and wait for her turn to buy at least a bag for her to taste it. She was able to buy one bag out of curiosity but she ended up going back to the end of the line for her to buy more for her friends and family back home. At any rate, we would always be swayed by what we really see especially when it comes to chips. Chips is the one thing that everyone in the world can relate to and I guess if there is one chip that will be associated with Singapore, it has to be the salted eggs fish skin. It seems that almost anyone who would visit the country would not really miss buying packs of this addictive snack.


We have all the fascination for chips and I guess watching TV or watching a movie can never be complete without munching on a bag of chips. I am still looking for articles to explain as to why they are so addictive. Well I guess it is just but our human brain that tells us that chips are really addictive. You really cannot blame people who are hooked to it and who could not watch a movie without munching on a bag of chips. It is the feeling that gets satisfied whenever we munch on chips. Just for example in a movie, when we are watching something exciting, there is a natural instinct in all of us to get some chips and open it.


It is just funny at times when some people would associate eating a bag of chips to being broken hearted. They say that the best way to get over someone is to face the TV and watch your favourite series being played on your TV while munching on a bag of chips. It may sound silly but we can actually see some people doing it. We also see that in the movies that we watch.


There is nothing wrong in eating chips every once in a while but we just have to make sure that everything is taken in moderation. We all know that anything that is abused can lead to us being unhealthy. You might want to check on the content of the chips that you are eating. If you actually compare salted egg chips, it is actually with less MSG content. It is also mostly with natural ingredients which I guess is one of the many reasons why people are addicted to it.
