Do you know the reason behind the Del Monte Deluxe Gold?  Why it is limited edition? The reason why it is different from what they produce is that there is 100% Pineapple Juice inside the can rather than having the syrup inside. Nothing gets thrown away when you open up the can of Del Monte Deluxe Gold Pineapple Chunks or Slices. I decided to purchase it since both my mom and Manang V have been requesting me to make them macaroni salad. Every year during our Christmas holiday this is what my family and co-workers ask me to make for them. They know how to cook just that when they make it for themselves the taste is different in what my mom tells me every time. To get my recipe on my macaroni salad click on the link: Macaroni Salad I had purchase my Limited Edition Del Monte  Deluxe Gold Pineapple Chunks or Slices online directly to  Shopee Del Monte Philippines  price per can is PHP 76.00 ($1.52).

  A funny thing happened when a family member ate the  Atkins Low Carb Living Meat Lasagna didn't realize they are eating something healthy. The person said why was it light but the taste was delicious not realize it is low carbohydrates for someone who is not on a diet can eat it. Sometimes we don't pay any attention to the content of the box we tend to just over pass and look at the picture of the frozen meals that are place in the freezer. When hunger strike us we pay less attention to what to read from the box we just cook it up in the microwave to solve from being hungry at that moment. I had purchased Atkins Low Carb Living Meat Lasagna at S&R online shopping for the price of PHP 269.00 ($5.38). Note: I am not advertising Atkins Low Carb Living Meat Lasagna.

In the year 1985 living in California my family would often purchase our meals through Boston Market when my parents didn't feel like cooking at our home. I remember when the Sunday newspaper had arrived thrown on our driveway there would be coupon's to cut that Boston Market had a promotion to use which meals we're on sale during that time. I grew up eating grilled chicken when I was young and still my favorite meal. Today I was able to purchase a side dish made by  Boston Market too bad there is no chicken version to be frozen but to get close to the taste back home. I have the Sweden Meatballs to share to you. The taste brought me back to memory lane that I miss American food and no matter if you cook the food everyone's secret is all different based on their own ingredients.

When you eat too fast with ice-cream you get a brain freeze last weekend my family had ordered fast food from different places each one of them had new ice-cream sundae. I went along and had ordered them some we're too melted to take a decent picture. Jollibee has a new sundae caramel popcorn never knew you can add popcorn to your vanilla ice-cream.

  My sister was the one who introduce me to cauliflower rice when I was visiting California last year she had informed me in replacement of her white rice. I decided to try Green Giant Veggie Tots made of Cauliflower in replacement of my potato. In the instructions it says to have it place in an oven since I don't have an oven in my home I used a toaster oven. It started to smell and toast for ten minutes for seven pieces. Of course each toaster oven are all different to me I don't like it too brown after smelling I knew it was warm enough to take a bite from it the texture is soft being a cauliflower yet it look like a tater tots if you wanted to fool someone else who doesn't eat vegetables.

I wanted to know what was so special on the Korea Lotte Air Baked Potato Chips that was being promoted by Blackpink Jennie. Every time I had tried to purchase from Assi Ceci Korean Grocery it was always unavailable this time around I was able to get lucky to finally try the Korea Lotte Air Baked Potato Chips with salt known to be the original. The way I see it look like a tortilla but it is actually a potato chip that is sliced thinly due it is being air baked. It taste like a potato that has been slightly salted. I wasn't able to try the cheese flavor who knows next time when it is available I can taste it. The price of the Korea Lotte Air Baked Potato Chips is PHP 105.00 ($2.10) although other sellers sell it for a higher price that I have seen online. NOT SPONSORED.

I was curious to try Canton Pineapple Beer that is a non-alcoholic to see if it was the same as what they have in the Philippines called Cali. The color of it you won't know there is no alcohol in it looks exactly if you we're to drink beer.

I had purchase it at Hongkong House  Online Shop in Shopee Philippines. It is sold for PHP 35.00 ($0.70) a can.

  Yann was telling me there is a new alcohol drink that she began buying at 7 Eleven near her home. Yann said she has been drinking Good Day Korean Peach Soju but what she didn't tell me the percentage of alcohol was in one bottle. I had poured a small portion in a shot glass drinking alone to see what Yann mentioned to me was what I had expected. Good Day Korean Peach Soju is too strong you can taste the peach and soju together being 13.5% alcohol was too high for me after drinking you feel a heat inside your body. OMG my face became red like a tomato.  Honestly I can only drink between 3% to 5% alcohol for me. I am not a drinker only drink a small portion of alcohol with my friends and the employee working with me. For someone who can tolerate a higher dosage of alcohol probably can manage drinking a bottle of this alone. It will take a me a long time to finish this not in one drinking session good thing I can seal the bottle and place it back in the fridge. You can purchase...

I started taking 24 Alkaline C since August 11, 2019. It was introduce by Yann telling me I should try it due having alkaline inside the vitamin c.  I remember someone came by the house selling alkaline water to us doing a demonstration costing lots of money. Rather than drinking the alkaline water I went ahead to try the 24 Alkaline C comes with Sodium Ascorbate.  I have been taking vitamin c for a very long time. I just switched to a different brand. The reason why I take vitamin c it prevents me getting sick especially when living with a lot of people in your home each illness passes to each person in your home. Ever since I started taking 24 Alkaline C I hardly get sick any more if I do I am the last after six months. Most of the time the flu doesn't target me this is what my family and co-workers notice from me. Compare to those who don't believe in taking vitamin c they end up getting sick and to me this is my prevention to stay healthy. Being healthy by the way I eat to...

Imagine yourself in a restaurant near the window looking at the waves at the water near the beach a place where you can eat fresh breaded fish fillet with French fries to dip in tartar sauce and clam chowder soup in a bread bowl. This reminds me back home in California where I would hang out with my Dad and his wife they love to bring me to these kinds of places. You feel like eating something like this and unable to travel you tend to find something to replace what you want to eat in doubt you're able to find a place called Fish & Co in the Philippines that serves the exact food I had just described. Best Fish in Town with Chips New York Fish & Chips New Clam Chowder Fish & Co. Restaurant websites: Philippines Singapore Australia Note: I am not adverting Fish & Co. Restaurant.
