I am thankful for a store like Healthy Options who provide health conscious eaters like me more options (to the readers who know me, stop laughing!). I went there today to get my healthy junk food. No that’s not an oxymoron. I happened to watch the Today show’s feature on healthy snacking and they showedContinue reading “Healthy Options Junk Food Haul”

Eat and Go

This is a new restaurant in SM Megamall’s Atrium. Their specialty is the London pies. Today they had 3 variants – Salmon & Spinach (bestseller), Juicy Steak and Chicken Ham.

Odd Balls

My favorite food at SM Mega Mall supermarket is Odd Balls. They sell a variety of balls – squid, fish, shrimp and kikiam. I only eat their squid balls which are chewy and have a subtle squid taste. What makes their squid balls stand out is the mix of hot and sweet sauce. The signContinue reading “Odd Balls”

What’s Hot at SOS!

SOS is my store where I sell food and other kinds of nourishment. Of all the snack items I carry, Oishi’s Marty’s Cracklin’ outsells everything by leaps and bounds. It must be the promise of a vegetarian chicharon (pork rind) that has 0% cholesterol and is guilt free. It’s really amazing how they got theContinue reading “What’s Hot at SOS!”
