Weren’t you ever curious about the origins of the assortment of delectable local desserts we call kuih muih? If you were, local animator Hyrul Anuar and scriptwriter Mo Nazmi Ahmad have together created a provocative animated short detailing the events leading up to the making of one particular kuih, the popiah basah.

While the video is aptly named after its subject matter, if you guessed the “Popiah Basah” title also hinted at the mildly sexual, satirically woven content contained in the 50-second animation, you would have guessed right. The short, in case it wasn’t already obvious, doesn’t actually contain any real information regarding the true origins of this dessert. Not much of a bummer though, considering the video is simply hilarious in its silliness.

A word of warning: This animation may not be suitable for children and homo sapiens that are incapable of appreciating ridiculous humour.

Still here? Well then, enjoy the video below!
