Tao Kae Noi ♥

Hi y'all!

I have been wanting to post about this -finally! *claps in excitement* ^.~ OK. I bet all Singapore's Tao Kae Noi fans would have known about this already but for the sake of the other people(other nice lovely people! xD) that reads my blog, I shall exhaust this further. This year, during the months of January - March, Tao Kae Noi has this special 'Scratch & Win' cards sealed in every participating flavour of theirs that could be found in many major department stores and hypermarkets such as NTUC Fairprice and Sheng Siong. 

This is how the participating snacks looks like.

(notice it has a sticker at the left-hand corner)

This is how the 'Scratch & Win' cards looks like

The flavour that I bought would be my favourite one which is Tom Yum Goong! I ♥ it very much to the extent that I kept buying this flavour instead of the many other flavour it has in stored.

This is how it looks like(if you do not know how it looks like..you know) xD

I can't resist it! It's simply scrumptious - the taste, the crunch, the smell,  the taste, the crunch, the smell, the - ah you get it xD  

So anyway, I think I had bought a total of 2 packs(during that time) because I don't usually share when I bought this particular flavour so I must buy just a certain amount of it. x)

I managed to redeem only 2 of it as I had destroyed one(not on purpose!) unfortunately. My elder brother was fuming mad. >.<'' We went to Orchard Central to redeem our Tao Kae Noi goodies.

Here are the goodies ↓

In the box of goodies are 2 small seaweed sized packets - chilly + original flavoured ones and 1 tin coin bank. 

By the way, have you ever wondered - who is the genius behind this scrumptious seaweed snack? Well, to be frank, I never really take interest in knowing who is the creator behind foods inventor. Pshh, I know I am not the only one. :P

So, he is the founder of Tao Kae Noi, Mr. Itthipat Kulapongvanich, or Top, in short.

Nin Jiom Herbal Candy Review

Hey hey readers, 

today's post will be a review entirely on some Nin Jiom herbal candies that I have tried before. I absolutely ♥ the original Nin Jiom Herbal Candy! Nothing can beat that flavour - yes, the rest is horrible(well, I have only tried one other flavour only - teehee).

My favourite one ↓

Ahh~ I love the original one as it is refreshing, sweet, nice-smelling and it is just a pure bliss. Not only is it a herbal candy that could relieve sore throat - it is also delicious! When my father first bought it, I thought to myself, 'NOOO, why must he kept buying all these herbal stuffs?!? Its not even nice! :P' Yep, he has a rep for purchasing yucky herbal/healthy foods! ~,~'  But this Nin Jiom candy is an exception! xD It's actually quite nice! I am so glad that I tried it and not reject the kind offer that my mum made. :D By the way, I bought the original Nin Jiom Herbal Candy at a nearby 'Seng Seng' shop(it is a Chinese Medicine Shop) and it only cost me $2.70! It is the cheapest so far. I have checked the other stores and they are retailing these babies at around $3 and above! - That's too much!

Moving on, I am going to review another flavour of the Nin Jiom Herbal Candy family. It is the Nin Jiom Herbal Candy Ume Plum! 

Here are 2 pictures that I had took of it ↓

As stated above, I had mentioned that the 'rest' is horrible and this is the one! >.<' Well, first off, I got the cute little packet of Nin Jiom Herbal Candy Ume Plum from my lil' bro. He recently watched a rehearsal of the NDP 2012 and received this as one of the snacks' goodies. He doesn't want it so I took it instead. I thought it was going to be as good as the original one or even better but I was wrong. So wrong. OK, frankly it wasn't that bad at all! Maybe it is not my cup of tea but many others would have loved it more. 

Okay, I shall end my Nin Jiom Herbal Candy Review now. Bye bye bye ~ (^w^)
