      Tankee,

      Are you being a little too harsh on yourself? Eat in moderation is better isn't it? You can order the kaya and butter toast but ask them for less butter and less kaya?

      Hey this is news to me. I ask for plain kaya and think that is damage control. Dont tell me kaya too is hig fat ? 😢

      by the way is the butter used in Ya kun proper butter, right?

      Kaya is very high in sugar. But that once in a while couple of slices of bread with a teaspoon or so of kaya is fine lah.

      Just dun do what my staff did when I made kaya and brought to the office. She ate it straight out of the bottle. Finished 1/2 a bottle in 1 seating.[/quote]Not only sugar.

      It is made using eggs and coconut, which are high in cholesterol and saturated fat.

      Kaya is a very sinful delicious treat

        I spend some time on the thread mill today;

        did not eat the egg yolk that came with my mee rebus lunch
        and somehow managed not to order kaya toast & soft boiled eggs from Ya Kun when I was there for coffee 😢

        Tankee,

        Not an option for me now.

        I am trying to lower my cholesterol level and avoid depending on medication to keep it under control. :sad:

            Kaya is a very sinful delicious treat[/quote]In that amount you spread on the bread, you will not be eating a whole egg. Verdict is out on whether coconut is good or bad. I lean towards bad. Way I see it, the sugar is a killer. Cos you are getting way more than 1tsp of sugar in that 1 tsp of kaya.

            But again, once in a while. Ok. Cannot deprive ourselves of everything also lah. Or else eating is such a chore.

                1 egg yolk contains 270mg of cholesterol, and the recommended daily intake of cholesterol is to keep below 300mg.

                  Maybe. Not been sleeping well due to the acid reflux problem I am having now.

                  Come to think of it, could also be cos I have not been as regular in my morning runs the last 2 weeks and my stamina is down. Haiz build up stamina tough, but to lose it, so easy.

                      How about eating nutella straight out of the bottle?
