Win2 Garlic Bread review

I found this at my local supermarket. I love Garlic Toast, so for me to see Garlic Bread Crisps (which is quite similar) I got excited and bought it.

These are from Indonesia, and I really liked them.

contains: 100g

481 calories per bag

Ingredients: Wheat Flour, Palm Oil, Rice, Corn, Sugar, Garlic Seasoning, Corn Starch, Salt Yeast, Calcium Carbonate, Seaweed, Synthetic Food Colouring (tartrazine E102)

the only concerns I have from this list are the Palm Oil and Calcium Carbonate.

These remind me of Calbee's roasted corn snacks with garlic flavour (the ones you can find in HK... somehow I have never seen them in Tokyo.

impressions:

• addictive
• strong garlic taste but not overwhelming
• will give you garlic breath (beware!)
• very crispy
• the seaweed felt very unnecessary... didn't contribute to the taste at all
• seaweed flakes were caught between my nails and cuticles a few times

aren't they cute? 

score: 8.8/10

Japan McDonald's Spicy Chicken McNuggets review

Something caught my eye while I was looking through the menu board at McDonald's... Spicy Chicken McNuggets!!!

tada!!

impressions:

• the original Chicken McNuggets taste is there
• has a light chilli sauce taste
• the heat builds up (but very slowly)
• perfect to be paired with coca cola

There were two new types of dipping sauces to choose from (aside from the usual Mustard and Barbeque sauce), Sour Cream and Onion and a spicy sauce. After some contemplating, I chose the Sour Cream and Onion as I felt I couldn't take Spicy Sauce on top of Spicy McNuggets.

The sauce and the Chicken McNugget turned out to be a perfect pair and I loved the combination!

Overall, I was very satisfied with the spicy version of one of my favourite sides, Chicken McNuggets, and was glad the spicy version made it taste much better! Be aware that the spiciness does build up though.

score: 9.5/10 (that is high!)
