LuckyMe! noodles (Phillipine) reviewed

Discovered the Lucky Me brand of instant noodles at a local Philippine store.

There so were many flavours so ended up getting a lot.

Here were the flavours tried.

LuckyMe Pancit Canton chow mein instant noodles

These were a little disappointing as the noodle shape was different to the product shot. 

Overall, they were not bad in a taste but a bit spicy.

Lucky Me! Bulalo 

Monde Nissin Beef bone marrow flavour instant noodles.
I was drawn to these noodles because it was unusual to see a beef bone marrow flavour but to be honest, I didn't expect it to contain any bone marrow.
It was a very small portion of noodles but in a way that was good because I got to try the other flavour of noodles afterwards.
The flavour was nice and beefy.
In the garnish sachet, there were these strands of brown stuff which looked like beef and when I tried them, they were convincing like pulled beef belly but they are actually texturized wheat protein from the ingredients.
Overall, this is really worth trying and guilt free as you don't get much in a portion.

Lucky Me! Monde Nissin chicken & seafood flavour in rich & thick soup instant noodles.
I bought these along with the Beef bone marrow flavour noodles.
The flavour profile of this soup was very different as it had a really strong prawny smell and you get wide noodles in the packet.
The soup comes out thick as shown.
Overall worth trying.

Lucky Me! Batchoy

Again another good noodle, the batchoy had some nice garnishing.

There was one sachet of crispy chicharron and garlic.

Batwan

Yes, it is spelt Batwan not Batman!

Anyway I mistook this for a Vietnamese Star apple but realised it was not when the fruit felt really hard.

Apparently it is meant to be that hard because I thought it wasnt ripe.

Inside the fruit there are some seeds in the centre which are covered in white sticky slime.

The hard orange flesh is similar to the texture of unripe hami melon however the taste is extremely sour and used as a cooking ingredient.

Chicken empanada

I was surprised to see a pie at the Philipino store. Although alot of their food are from mixed cuisines.

This one looked like a chicken pie but the size was about 1/3 smaller than the normal ones.

As I was peckish, the size was just right.

When I cut open the pie, it smelt nice, the gravy inside was dark and it had raisins as well as peas.

Oveall it tasted nice but too salty.

CHOSEN Fish crackers

These crackers where surprisingly nice and the fish taste was extremely strong that it similar to eating fried fish skin.

However they were slightly too salty.

The cracker pieces were quite big and filled the entire bag unlike Chinese snack packaging where it is a quarter filled and the rest is THIN AIR!

I really appreciate how Indonesian and Philipino food can be cheap and come in decent amounts and not fake like food in China.

Lemon Square’s Whatta Tops Chocolate Cream

Chocolate cupcake with chocolate filling topped with chocolate icing and rainbow sprinkles.

Overall the cupcake was really nice but I could have done without the topping because it was too sweet.

The size of the cake was about 4.5cm in diametre and 2.5cm tall.

Tita KCs Creation Puto seko Coconut Angel Cookies

These bite sized coconut biscuits were nice but too sweet and had too much purple colouring which is strange because usually purple is used for taro.

Tita KC's creation Pacencia White Wheat Drop Cookies

It's weird this Philipino product has Chinese and French on it.

The cookies were very sweet and hard.

W.L Food CORN BITS chicken flavour

These are snacks made in the Philippines.
They are pieces of deep fried sweetcorn but not quite like popcorn.
Overall they were nice but the artificial chicken flavouring was too strong.

CROLEY FOOD's ButterCream Ube crackers

These crackers were sweet and extremely buttery as stated, however the ube taste was weak.
The crackers were lightly dusted with sugar.

The size of these crackers were about 4cm x 13cm which were quite big, but the thickness was really thin about 3-4mm.

There were three crackers in each individual pack inside the large pack.

Senorita Cooked Dry Peas

Was attracted by this can because the can looked quite classy, almost like the high end brands.

It is quite surprising that Philipino foods can be quite well packaged and the English is perfect with standard nutrition labellings.

When I opened the can, it was filled with quite alot of brine, there was only half a can of peas inside.

As I do not know how you are suppose to eat them, I just ate them straight from the can.

Anyway as these are dry peas, they tasted quite hard and dry.

Magnolia Cheezee Squeeze, Squeeze that Cheese!

http://magnolia.com.ph/news-detail.php?ref=15

Bought some squeezy cheese that was really nice, however I put too much on my bread and realised it was too salty after taking a bite.

Since it was really salty I put another piece of bread on top and the taste was just right and not too salty.

It was really nice and cheesy.

They also have cheezee squeeze in Pimento flavour as well.
