Food Finds: Veggie Bread at 7-11


I am a busy person and there are times I forget to bring my food with me to work so the next best thing for me instead of buying fast food is heading to the convenience stores near my office. 
I usually buy bread, canned tuna and pineapple juice or any juice I see on their chiller. 
I was actually curious with this bread that is why I bought it. This is like any other bread but it has veggies in it. 
Its quite cheap in its price which is 19.00PHP which is less than a dollar in the US. 

As upon opening it I was kinda curious what it would smell like since that would usually be my way to say if it tastes good or not. I know I'm weird so don't say it hehe!  I was actually surprise that when I opened this it smelled like pizza, I'm not kidding this REALLY smells like one! 
By taste it does taste good but not great. I'm no connoisseur but I think its because this was not fresh when I bought it. It was actually near its expiration date so I wasn't able to feel its crispiness. Ah the memories when I became a baker's apprentice.. sorry daydreaming again :) 
But overall this is a good buy if you want a different kind of bread. 
This is available in 7-11 for only 19.00 for 2 slices. 
Much Love!

Enjoying a Big Uhaw won't kill you


I have a friend who once criticized me about drinking 711's Big Gulp that it would kill me. 

I know where she is coming from, but lets set things straight-
 
I DON'T DRINK BIG GULP ON A DAILY BASIS.

I know that too much of something can kill you. I would enjoy a big gulp on a day before or on my payday which comes only twice a month, so why judge me in indulging on something I only get twice a month? 

I am not ranting if you are wondering, but there are things in life that we cannot have all the time, and when people judge you for at least enjoying it once in a while, just ignore them. 
Food is there to nourish and to comfort us. Enjoying some once in a while is okay, just don't make it your only way to comfort yourself. 

Much Love!

Afternoon Snacks: 7-11's Daily Bread Brownies


I seriously love chocolate. I love any kind of food that has chocolate. Usually when I'm at the office and I have extra time, I would drop by the convenience stores here in the vicinity of our office, one of them is 711,
711 has a lot in store. From food to personal stuff they have it here. 
The 711 in our area is always packed with people since it is surrounded by offices. 

They also have their own line of pastries called the daily bread. Honestly I haven't tried all of the bread it has. I also haven't tried this so might as well I do a review about it. 

In price its reasonable for 28 pesos (approximately .68 USD). They also have variants in rocky road, chocolate with white icing and of course the original brownies. Taste-wise its pretty much okay if you just need a quick chocolate rush. 

My overall verdict for this one is its okay but needs to improve more. I think one reason why people don't buy this is simply because it doesn't have that "chocolate touch" You know the taste that is creamy yet not overwhelming and the sweetness of chocolate is just there...that is what I am looking for.

You can buy this at any 711 store. 

Hope you enjoyed my food review for today.

I'll have more in store! 

Much Love!
