You must remember to state that the hum must be locally bred and not some import ones hor? hahaha!!
(sorry guys, it is a spug joke)
are there still local hums???
I remembered when I was young, used to go Lim Chu Kang Beach and dig for hums there, 1 big plastic bag in just a few hours....
Not sure even if there is, it is actually edible.
