Q:You like Ketupat, but do you know the history of it?
Response: I don't know about the history, I just eat it.

Q: When is ketupat usually eaten?
Response: Usually it is eaten during Hari Raya or any other malay festivities. Sometimes people also eat ketupat with satay.

Q: Why do you think the ketupat is wrapped with leaves?
Response: To keep it together so that it does not seperate while boiling. I think it has also got to do with the smell or fragrance.

Q: Have you ever made a ketupat before?
Response: Yes, I sometimes help my grandmother to make ketupat before Hari Raya. It is very fun but also quite challenging. When you wrap the ketupat, it is like solving a Rubik's Cube

Conclusions
- Most of the younger generation do not know the history of their favourite food or traditional food. They just enjoy what they are eating. But, some of them are curious and are willing to find out about it.
