About a week ago, I brought a big packet of Muruku Ikan as snacks… I didn’t really look at the label details but all this while I realise they have a notice that they haev the word “barangan asli” all over it and its also stated that they will reward you RM20,000.00 if you find any company producing the same product under their brand.

I didn’t pay too much attention to those until this week when John went to bought another big packet and pass 1 to me… then hey… I realised that the packaging is slightly different, the baby drawing is different and when I compare, its a totally different brand but similar packaging, color, look and feel. John didn’t even realise it until I highlight it to him!

Both are muruku ikan but different company and brand name but both use a baby as the brand. We open up both, did a blind test and most of the people can easier tell the original brand which to us still taste nicer. The other one is somehow lacking in taste but 2 tasteless guys (let’s not mention name ) in office seems to like it though.

So, the next time you buy your muruku ikan, check first before buying! Make sure you get the one you fancy!
