Asian Marshmallows

 Review nr. 50!! Omg guys 50 is a big number :o I'm so glad most of you still stick arround :')
So today, I'm tasting some more assorted candies but they are both marshmallows! Lets taste them!

Packaging: These two types of marshmallows come in different packages. The first one comes in a pink plastic bag with little roses and a bigger red rose. The second one comes in a half clear/half red plastic bag with golden decorations.

The Marshmallows: Both Marshmallows are small white balls. They seem a little softer than regular marshmallows to me. The interesting thing about these ones is that they both have jam on the inside. The first one has red jam and the second has yellow jam.

Flavour: I really enjoyed this ones.The texture of them is just great, extra fluffy, and the mix of the jam inside is a delishious surprise. The jam on the first one is red and I think it's suposed to be strawberry but it has some hints of citrus in there. The second one, with the yellow jam, tastes like artificial pineapple. That one is my favourite.

Rating: 8 out of 10
Overall, really nice marshmallows. I prefer the pineapple one but they are both lovely and different. Give them a try!

Strawberry Yogurt with Nata de Coco

 Review nr.49!! Hey guys, I'm back with a drink for you! So basically, asians love jellow-like textures. And as so, they love to put nata de coco on pretty much everything! Even yogurt like this. I bring you: Strawberry Yogurt with Nata de Coco!

Packaging: The yogurt comes in a white plastic bottle with a pink cap. It has a drawing up front of the yogurt, some strawberries and nata de coco pieces,

The Yogurt: The yogurt is really liquid, like milk, and totally white. The pieces of nata d coco are jellatinous and clear. It smells like artificial strawberry.

The Flavour: This is some really nice yogurt. The artificial strawberry flavour is really yummy and I'm really loving the asian trend of jellow textures in drinks, so the nata de coco bits are just lovelly. Really good drink!

Overall, really good yogurt! If you like jellow in your drinks give it a shot, they have other flavours!

Seaweed Fish Crackers

 Review nr. 48!! Hey guys, sorry I haven't been posting every day, it's due to health issues (I get really bad migraines and I just can't be on the computer when that happens). But today I'm here with another snack! This time we have seawead crackers with a bonus, they are shaped like cute fish! Lets eat some fish!

Packaging: The crackers come in a blue and white plastic bad with the brand "Oishi" (delishious in japanese) and a picture of the crackers.

The crackers: The crackers have an adorable fish shape. They are slightly orange and springled with seaweed.

The Flavour: these are really good, pretty addictive. The are very light and crispy. They have a corn snack flavour (they are corn based crackers) mix with the flavour of the delishous seaweed sauce on the outside. I really like these.

Strawberry Mochi

 Review nr. 47!! Hey guys, I've found another mochi flavour! Let us rejoice! This time we have strawberry mochi! Lets try it.

Packaging: This pack of mochi (like all the other fruit flavoured ones) comes with 3 mochi balls in a clear plastic tray. The tray is wrapped in clear plastic with pink edges and a drwing of a strawberry on the front.

The mochi: The mochi is a squichy pink ball covered in flower. Like all the others, the inside has jam and a white substance that i can never identify. It smells like strawberry.

The taste: The rice paste tastes the same, every time. The jam on these ones doesn't taste like real strawberry, it tastes like artificial strawberry flavouring. As in all the other fruit mochi, I have to complain about the low amount of jam in these, they would be a lot better if there was more. None the less, these are my favourite fruit mochi so far.


Rating: 8,4 out of 10
Overall, these are the best fruit flavoured mochi, to me. Although I still prefer the peanut ones over all. If you like strawberry, try these.

Coconut Taffy

 Review nr. 46!! Hey guys, I now bring you another assorted asian sweet. This time, thanks to the packaging, I could see right away that it was coconut flavoured and soft, so no mystery there. Anyway, lets review!

Packaging: This candy comes in a clear plastic bag with yellow lines and a picture of a coconut, telling us the flavour of the candy.

The candy: the candy is a soft, sticky cube. It has a cream/off-white color and smells like coconut.

Flavour: This has a mild coconut flavour. More coconuty than coconut water but less than shaved coconut. I suspect this may be a nata de coco based sweet. The texture is really sticky, it will defenetly get stuck in your teeth. If you like coconut and sticky stuff, it's a pretty good candy.


Rating: 6.5 out of 10
Overall, nice sweet if you're a coconut lover and like gooey stuff. Give it a shot!

S'mores Pop Tarts


Review nr. 45!! Guy, today I bring you the ever so famous: Pop Tarts! Ok so, I've always been curious about pop tarts because they're really high in calouries so I wanted to know if they were worth the extra pounds (seriously guys, they have 200 calories per pop tart! That's like half of a big meal :o) So, let's check these out!

Packaging: These come in a pack of two, is a blue plastic bag. The bag is decorated with the Pop tarts logo, a picture of the tarts and an anouncement of the flavour (I got the s'mores flavour because it looked delishious!). They also anounce in the package that the tarts have 8 vitamins and minerals.

The tart: The tarts have a light brown cookie exterior (like a Graham cracker, I supose) with some brown frosting on top. On the inside we have a chocolate syrup and marshmallow cream filling.

The Taste: Ok so these won me over. I'm not sure they are woth 200 calories per tart, but they are pretty darn good. The cracker is soft and flacky, not very flavoured but the sweet frosting makes up for it. The filling is super yummy! Nice gooey marshmallow and ultra sweet rich chocolate. So Yummy!

Rating: 9 out of 10
Overall, against my better judgement, I can't help but repurchase these. I'll probably try all the flavours I can and you should too!

Mystery Asian Hard Candy

Review nr. 44!! Last review of the day! Back to Asia!
So, last time I was at one of the asian supermarket I saw a couple of assorted unamed candies and I decided to pick some up. This hard candy was one of them. I originaly thought it was a chinese, milk hard candy (because I heard of those and this one kind of looks like them). Boy was I wrong!

Packaging: These come individually wrapped in clear plastic with red and golden edges.

The Candy: The hard candy is mostly white with golden edges. Kind of has a long pillow shape. It has no smell.

The Taste: Ok guys, this was one of the biggest surprises I've ever had, really! I was expecting something like milk but it was nothing like it. This candy tastes like cream and PEANUTS! It's a peanut flavoured hard candy! Good, but so strange!


Rating: 6,5 out of 10
Overall, wierd and different, just the kind of thing I like to show you guys. Peanut lovers, give it a shot!

Store: Supermercado Hua Ta Li

Price: (I don't know guys because all the candy I bought was paid by the pound)
