White Hat Italian Yogurt

The White Hat yogurts
Yogurts are such a craze! A proof that people nowadays are getting more health-conscious. It's got good bacterias needed by the body and so much more as compared to the typical ice cream. It may cost you some more bucks, but what's that compared to the health benefits it could give? Even kids like Kyle loved yogurts. I used to think at yogurt the other way--knowing they're sour...I didn't know it could also taste sweet and creamy just like an ordinary ice cream, only better...What's more, you could choose healthy toppings too like cereals, fruits, cranberries and almonds...How's that? You really can't go wrong with yogurts like Italian brand The White Hat....

Kyle enjoys a cup of White Hat yogurt with Kiwi toppings.

Marty's Baconette Strips by Oishi



I suppose we all love bacon. Those thin strips of pork fat could easily make you salivate, right? But then, we need to take care of our health. Easier said than done? Seeing Marty's Baconette strips in its crunchy goodness was like heaven sent. Just like the first Marty's--the vegetarian pork rind (chicharon) version Oishi made with vegetarian and health-conscious in mind, Baconette is addicting. You'll keep coming back for more. What's more? It looks exactly like the real thing, only crispier.  However, I do hope Oishi will make a smaller pack of Baconette. Or perhaps a trial size, for those who would like to taste it and haven't tried it yet. But for Baconette-addicts like me, I'd like the huge package better so that i can share it with friends.

Oishi Marty's Baconette is available in all leading supermarkets nationwide.
