Egg Tofu

I am not a fan of egg tofu because it has a slightly sweet taste and it tastes of egg more than natural tofu.
The egg tofu is always packed in plastic pouches which I never knew why until I wiki'd it.

Anyway, this particular one I bought was made in Chinese and it did not taste really nice, although it did not have that sweet taste, it was quite salty and tasted really artificial.
It just tasted like a disgusting version of Japanese steamed egg or savoury egg caramel pudding.

Definition of Egg Tofu by wikipedia:
Egg tofu (Japanese: 玉子豆腐, 卵豆腐, tamagodōfu) (Chinese: 蛋豆腐, dàn dòufu; often called 日本豆腐, rìbĕn dòufu, lit. "Japan bean curd") is the main type of savory flavored tofu. Whole beaten eggs are filtered and incorporated into the soy milk before the coagulant is added. The mixture is filled into plastic tubes and allowed to curdle. The tofu is then cooked in its packaging and sold. Egg tofu has a pale golden color that can be attributed to the addition of egg and, occasionally, food coloring. This tofu has a fuller texture and flavor than silken tofu, which can be attributed to the presence of egg fat and protein.

McDonalds: Singapore

McDonalds in Singapore

I was quite surprised they offer Jasmine tea as one of their beverages, and since Singapore is quite multicultural chicken is quite a popular item there.
Even for breakfast they have crispy chicken with eggs!
I have tried cinammon melts before which are delicious and here they have blueberry melts as well!

Western Beef McWrap - fresh strips of beef instead of burger patty.

This egg wrap seems interesting because it has ham and arugula lettuce
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
I like the design for these milkshakes, but I wonder if the real thing looks similar to the product shot.
Milkshake flavours: chocolate, blackcurrant, strawberry and vanilla

Super sweet heart shaped donut and the ring shaped donut sprinkled with kit kats!

Jogurt s ovocem a bebe
Yoghurt with these cute chocolate wheat biscuits! But I wonder if it is for kids or babies, because in Czech there seems to be the word Bebe which means babies.

I didnt see anything interesting on the Croatian menu for Mcdonalds, but the desserts look good especially the Cherry pic and the sundae above which has chocolate sponge base, layered with icecream and caramel sauce.
