Picky Potato

Here's an interesting little food stand.  Their specialty is fries.  Fries with different seasonings and sauces, thick or thin cut, etc.  It's like a boring version of the Poutinerie.  The interesting thing is their slogan: "Picky Potato.  The beginning of a friendship between a boy & a bear...".  There's a whole back story to go along with the character (http://www.pickypotato.com.sg/about.php).  I'll copy and paste it after the jump.  I have no idea what they story has to do with anything, especially French Fries, but there's clearly a lot of thought that went into it.  Also, this appears to be the only location.  Maybe they're hoping for franchising, merchandising... a cartoon?

“Picky, the Supreme Creator is impressed with the good deeds you have done and for all your acts of bravery to uphold justice in the Heavenly World. You are hereby conferred the title, Justice Star”…

That was two years ago.

Since then, peace has been maintained throughout the Heavenly World. No sign of evil, no monstrous attack, no wicked villain.

And all these spelt just one word for Picky - BOREDOM.

Wait! What's that?!

Picky looked into his earth-lens, and saw a little earthling bear shivering in fear. The helpless animal was surrounded by a pack of menacing wolves.

“Oh no! What are the wolves doing? Are they going to attack the bear? I must do something! I know I must not interfere with earthly matters, but I am the Justice Star, and I cannot turn a blind eye and do nothing!”

Like a speed flash, Picky whizzed down to earth.

“Boom!” The wolves were startled on seeing Picky.

But they did not retreat. They moved closer and were ready to pounce on the bear. The bear covered its eyes with its paws in fear.

“Whoosh!” Picky immediately sent an invisible shield around the shivering bear.

The wolves pounced on the bear, but were rebounded by the powers of the shield. Thrilled by its new ‘power’, the bear looked up at the wolves, stuck out its tongue, and shook its butt at them. Feeling smug, it started to roll itself on the ground, as if to annoy the enraged pack.

Not wasting any more time, Picky threw an invisible punch on the wolves. The wolves were by now confused and terrified. They realised they had to retreat. And so, they fled.


“Picky, why are you on earth? Come back right now!” the Supreme Creator commanded.

On hearing that, Picky looked at the bear. The bear looked up at Picky with its tear-filled eyes. There was innocence and sadness.

“Where are your papa and mama? Let me bring you to them before I leave.” Picky asked.

The bear shook its head and stared into the sky. Picky felt the visuals of the bear’s parents’ demise, leaving it alone on earth.

At this moment, the bear started to drool and pointed to its belly.

Picky smiled, “You must be hungry.”

Picky whipped out some Potato Pom Poms, and fed them to the hungry little bear.

Picky looked up at Supreme Creator, and looked at the bear. He clenched his fist and puckered his brows.

Taking a deep breath, Picky decided… “Your Highness, as the Justice Star, I have to maintain justice whether on heaven or earth. I will stay on earth to protect this bear.”

“Picky, if you stay on earth, I will have to eliminate all your powers. You have to consider your decision wisely.” The Supreme Creator sounded solemn.

“With or without powers, I will uphold my duty as Justice Star.” Picky was determined.

“Very well Picky. I consent to your wish of remaining on earth. I will watch over you from the Heavens.” The Supreme Creator declared.

“Yes, your Highness!” replied Picky delightfully.

Picky turned and saw that the bear had finished eating all the Potato Pom Poms.

With one hand on his chin, Picky exclaimed “Aha!!! I will call you ‘Pom Pom’! And from today on, we shall jointly embark on our journey of adventures!”
