Me and Kopiko Candy

I have a phobia of eating kopiko candy. When I was 6, I choked up eating the candy and then straight away ran to my mum. She hit me on my upper back a few times and the candy came out off my windpipe.

It was scary but my mom didn’t seem scared or anything. 😂

We were at kampong. I think it was during raya I guess. My cousins and I were eating the candies at the verandah.

When I went to my mum, I don’t exactly remember how I told her I got choked. I was super panic at that time. Luckily she understood the situation well.

I almost never eat kopiko candy after the incident. I avoid any hard sweets too.

I finally ate one last year just to remember the taste. Haha. It was still good. 🤣
