This restaurant is serving kitchen sponges & dirty sink water — and people are actually eating it
For RM27, you'll be treated to what looks like a classic lime green dishwashing sponge, soaked in suspiciously soapy suds, complete with bubbles for that oh-so-luxurious mouthfeel. You can even request a shot of extra detergent — straight from the bottle, darling.
Now, I know what you're thinking: This is absolutely disgusting! And you're right. But also… when else will you get the chance to truly clean your mouth? Especially if you've spent the last month blabbering about your ex, your family, or the entire human race — this might be the universe's way of telling you it's time to start fresh.
Just when you think it can't get any more unhinged, it does: the dish comes with a side of dirty sink water — scooped straight from KANTIN's well-worn kitchen sink. A little counterproductive? Sure. But when will you ever get to taste the air tangan of an actual dishwasher? Exactly.
Okay, I know that some of you are getting more and more alarmed as this article goes on, but in case it wasn't obvious — yes, these are all edible! The 'kitchen sponge' is actually a delightfully fluffy dessert you can scoop and devour, and the 'dirty sink water' is a safe-to-drink concoction designed to test your courage and your palate.
While this might trigger a few gag reflexes among the more picky foodies, for those who once nibbled on real sponges as curious kids (we see you), this might be the redemption arc you've been waiting for.
So, what do you say? Dare to take a bite? KANTIN's April Fools special is available throughout Apr at both their Malaysia and Singapore locations. Get them while they last!
Is Wingstop Singapore's IG account just a bold marketing stunt— or has it actually been hacked?

Pregnant New York news anchor continues to deliver news in three-hour broadcast after her water breaks
Talk about breaking news. A pregnant upstate New York news anchor broke the news that her water broke live on air – and continued to host her show for another three hours, according to social media posts and reports. Olivia Jaquith, an anchor with WRGB, a CBS affiliate in Albany, made the announcement just before 6 a.m. on Wednesday that her water had broken moments before the newscast began, NBC News reported. Jaquith and her co-anchor, Julia Dunn, went on Facebook Live just minutes before going on air to break the news and explain what had just happened. 'This isn't April Fools, Olivia's water broke – in the newsroom, right?' Dunn asks. 'In the newsroom,' Jaquith confirms. Dunn hands the phone to Jaquith and tells her she needs to explain what's going on. 'I don't know what's going on, this is my first time, I'm new here,' Jaquith jokes. Then Jaquith explained that she felt some discomfort the day before and went to the doctors, where a monitor picked up a few contractions. When she came into work the following morning, her water broke in the bathroom, just a few minutes before going live on air. The jokes continued as Jaquith – who said she was two days past her due date – continued to labor on through the broadcast, cracking jokes with her colleagues during the entire three-hour run of the news show. 'We do have some breaking news this morning. Literally, Olivia's water has broke, and she is anchoring the news now in active labor,' Dunn said at the top of the show. 'Early labor. Early labor,' Jaquith added with a grin. 'Let's not get carried away.' Jaquith's contractions were two minutes apart – Dunn said they had been timing them. 'No, well, there was one, but it's been a few minutes since then, so we're still in good shape,' Jaquith said. 'I'm happy to be here, and I'll stay on the desk for as long as I possibly can,' she said. 'But if I disappear, that's what's going on.' The broadcast staff had fun with Jaquith's unusual situation. A chyron at the top of the screen read: 'Days Past Due Date: 2.' At one point, a headline at the bottom of the broadcast announced: 'Baby Watch' and 'Here Comes Baby P, Good Luck Olivia.' Jaquith never seemed nervous or uncomfortable during the newscast, at one point asking the program's meteorologist a cheeky question. 'If my baby does come today, Craig, how's the weather looking?' The weatherman joked about putting her over his shoulder and taking her to the hospital if things become urgent. Instead of a coffee break, Jaquith suggested that viewers take a 'water break.' On Thursday, the anchor announced that her baby boy — her first child with her husband Tyn — had arrived. 'What a wild 24 hours! And now, baby boy is here,' she wrote on Instagram. 'Soaking up kisses and cuddles for now, but will share updates soon.'

Taste Test: Malört candies don't disappoint
What started out as an April Fools' laugh, has turned into a confection bitter enough to make you cry. Why it matters: New Malört Sucks candies open the horrors of Chicago's favorite cult beverage to a whole new segment of the population: non-drinkers. The backstory: After creating a jokey social media post about fictional Malört candies last April 1, Malört maker CH Distillery got so many requests for the product it decided to launch real ones this year. What they're saying: "We are excited to bring Malört Sucks hard candies to our loyal fans across the country, giving them exactly what they asked for — another bad idea," CH CEO Tremaine Atkinson said in a statement. The verdict: These little suckers greet you with a butterscotchy sweetness that quickly gives way to notes of grapefruit peel and chloroquine. In other words, Malört fans will love them. Others will probably want to save these for pranks only.
