Barbecue rib flavoured seaweed


Got this from a friend who came back from Korea.
The flavour was interesting because it was unusual, it was barbecue ribs.
In the packet were about five sheets, the seaweed had some brownish seasoning on it, most probably the rib flavouring, however I could not taste it.

Blueberry flavoured Ribena

Tastes like Robinson's blackcurrant squash.
Overall the taste was very sour.

Drinkt2u Lemon green tea


After trying the pomegranite one, I also got the Lemon.
Lemon tastes much more natrual and refreshing.
Pleasant and not too sweet.

Drinkt2u Pomegranite green tea


The drink seems to be from Korea because of the Dong Won logo.
Alot of Korean and Thai products these days have English.

Anyway was surprised this is sold in the US as well.
When I opened it, I could smell COFFEE and some slight cherryade as well.
It tasted like coffee too with some sourness,
There was strong roasted taste and aroma to it as well.
The good thing was it was not that sweet.

The colour of this drink was pink.

I tried the cheddar cheese and blue cheese, both were nice an cheesey.
I wish I had bought the tomato and rosemary as well, because I wonder how the tomato filling looks.

Blue Cheese & Walnut Flavor


Mozzarella and bacon

Goats cheese and rosemary

Mozzarella and herbs

tomato and rosemary

Tipiak couscous with lemon and mint

Tasted better than Couscous with spices.
The sourness of the Lemon was at maximum strength, and the mint tasted like fresh mint leaves mixed in.



Korean Dong Won rice drink




When I opened the can, it smelt like Vitasoy Malt, I couldnt find any rice until I got to the bottom of the can, there were bits of rice that were similar to the residue found in extremely watery congee.

Basically it tasted like Vitasoy Malt but without the soymilk taste.
Apart from that, I found it too sweet and after diluting it tasted better.



According to the English labelling this drink is meant to be Fermented rice nectar.
However the label was a bit suspicious, it is a rice drink, but the ingredients do not mention any rice!

Select Jasmine tea



Cant remember the price, but the taste was as good as Liptions.

TEBS Tea with soda



Too sweet and not fizzy!
But nice concept of tea flavoured soda.

Croc' légumes carrot and cumin wafer crackers


After trying the beetroot and shallot flavour, this time I tried the carrot and cumin.
The beetroot one tastes much nicer.
The carrot one tastes too salty.
However you can really smell and taste the carotene and the cumin.
There is a slight smoked smell as well.
It literally tastes like eating carotene and cumin together!

Dragon Island Continental Spanish style sausage


They look like continental sausages, but they are actually from an Asian brand called Dragon Island.
I have only posted the uncooked pictures because they were a nightmare to cook.
They tasted disgusting and rubbery with chewy little unswallowable white pieces.

Bonne Mamam caramel tartelet



Super yummy chocolate and caramel tarts, the caramel is extremely chewy and the base is nice and buttery.
The chocolate on top is a bit like fudge.
The sweetness is just right they are so moreish!

Nestle MAXIBON Cookie Ice-cream



Not bad, but I didnt like the chocolate end and it was messy as well!
Advice for eating:
Hold the biscuit side and eat the chocolate end first, or you'll end up with the chocolate side collapsing when you hold that end.

Tipiak couscous with spices


I love couscous but it is so damn rare in HK!

You have to go to expensive restaurants or buy the uncooked version.
I tried buying uncooked couscous pearls last time, but the couscous would not soften and the texture was nothing like the ones I have tried after I cooked it!

The one I got this time was INSTANT couscous, you just add water and let it stand for 5 minutes.
Best of all, they have different flavours.
The one I tried this time was the Middle Eastern spices. I also got the LEMON AND MINT.
When I opened the packet, I could smell strong cumin and caraway seeds.
After pouring hot water and letting it stand for five minutes, the magic couscous was ready to eat.
The taste was the same as Nissin's curry pot noodles.
The softness of the couscous depends on how much water you put.

Japanese coarse salt flavoured sweets


At first I thought they were from China, because of the Chinese characters.
They are actually Japanese sweets.
The taste of the sweets were not that salty, but the taste was savory with some sweetness.
There was lemon taste too.
It tastes exactly like the Chinese Salted lemon drink.

Nissin Curry Cheese pot noodles


On my second time, I removed the cheese and poured water in the cup, after the noodles were soft enough I drained some of the soup and put the cheese back.
The cheese ended up nice and gooey and it tasted cheesier.



Cute opening tab

Never tried cup noodles with cheese, so had to try it.
After peeling the lid back, it was really fun finding cubes of dehydrated cheese and mushrooms.
There were two types of cheese and you could see there are two colours to the cheese.
As I have eaten this twice, I recommend taking out the cheese cubes and putting them back after the noodles are ready to eat.
The first time, the cheese was wasted because it dissolved into the soup and I couldnt taste it or see it.
