I was glad there is now Squid to choose from because it was delicious, the wine has a really nice savory taste and the texture of the squid is really springy flavoured with the wine.

Squid soaked in Chinese wine by Original Taste Workshop
I love snacks soaked in Chinese wine but the ones by Original Taste all have bones (i.e ducks tongue, pork knuckles and chicken feet).
I was glad there is now Squid to choose from because it was delicious, the wine has a really nice savory taste and the texture of the squid is really springy flavoured with the wine.

Next time I am going to put them on my instant noodles/cup noodles with the wine as well.

Green Tea molten cake
The first time I had green tea fondant cake was at Sinmei’s and then the Intercontinental hotel.
Now you can get it from Circle K convenience stores for $9.9.
Before putting it in the microwave:
After I took it out from the microwave, I was shocked to see the fondant had burst in the centre which was kind of funny. FXXK! Bursting and not molten cake! 頂!!!!爆心蛋糕
As for the taste, it was really nice and not too sweet with a strong green tea taste.

Kimnori seasoned laver - Cheese flavour
Cheese flavoured seaweed! That's a first!
Although it is a Korean product, there was Thai on the labeling too.
When I opened the resealable bag, there was a really strong cheese smell.
(It was a little bit artificial for my liking).
The pieces of seaweed were small and annoying just like toppings.
As for the taste, it was very cheesy and savory but too salty.

Acecook 25th Anniversary Black Squid ink instant noodles
Initially I did not notice the special edition cup noodles by Acecook because it was Black and did not stand out on the shelf.
Anyway, the black wrapping was quite classy and it was SQUID flavoured too!
It was the first time I came across squid flavoured cup noodles.
Inside the box, there was a sachet of liquid sauce and a sachet of condiments containing dried squid and cabbage.
After the pouring away the water in the custom made drainage holes on the corner, the noodles were ready to be mixed with sauce.
Mixing sauce into it
The taste was a bit disappointing because the squid taste was not obvious and the colour was not as black as I hope for squid ink.

La Fermière marron
The chestnut yoghurt was contained in a pretty glass jar and at the bottom there was a thin layer of chestnut puree.
The yoghurt had a lovely tart taste while the sweet starchy chestnut puree at the bottom balanced the tartness of the yoghurt.
It had nice tones of vanilla with visible vanilla seeds in it.

Some of the desserts in the range are contained in pretty ceramic jars such as the creme delice series.

PRETZ Tom Yum Kung
Thanks to Lemon Tea for these delicious Tom Yum Kung flavoured PRETZ sticks by Glico in Thailand.
The flavour of these were intense and savory, with hints of lemon, lemongrass and they were quite spicy too with a spicy aftertaste.
The hint of lemon was the best with visible herbs on the Pretz sticks.
After eating half the packet, my tastebuds became accustomed to the spices and they smelt and tasted like the savory lemon puffs by the Garden brand.

Microwaved taro
I love taro but it seems too bothersome to cook because it is similar to a potato where you have to peel off the skin.
What's worse is that the Taro skin is muddy and uneven.
Just for fun I microwaved dry it to see if it was a possible solution.
After microwaving it for 6 minutes, the results were quite good, the skin on the outside became dry and separated from the taro and it was easy to peel off.

However some parts of the taro were really dry, but the moist part was edible.
(For bigger taros, longer microwaving time may be required.)
I ate them plain, so there was not much taste but the texture was quite viscous.
For more flavouring, I am just going to add salt next time and maybe I will try turn it over halfway through and then microwave it again to see if it helps reduce the dryness.
