Sweet Wheat Porridge or Bubur gandum is something that I miss from home....
Ironic... living in a country where wheat is one of the staples, yet I can't find polished wheat pearls in our local grocer.

I once, jumped with joy... thinking that I finally get to eat this childhood sweet treat, when I saw a packet labelled "Job's tear" (if I am not mistaken...) and there was 'Wheat' written somewhere on the packaging, at our local Asian grocer,

With failing eyesight, furthermore, its more than 12 years that I haven't seen wheat grain up close... thinking Job's tear could deliver... how wrong was I?
It turnout that Job's tear was just Barley :(.

It was months later that I found the 'real deal' :P from another Asian grocer, south of the river.

its ok ... more for us ;p
