Pineapple Fruit Feast

When I want to have a quick dose of Vitamin C, I go ahead and have slices of these after meals:

For me, pineapples provide variety of flavor and taste because I can say that not all of these slices are equal.

There are those that will make you look like an endorser of a vinegar ad, while there are some slices that will make you eat the rest as well because you just got the sweet ones.

They say that these pineapple chunks in can are still healthy, yes I believe so, but I find the fresh ones better in terms of taste and texture.

So the next time you want to grab these healthy treats, make sure to choose those that are really ripe, ready for a quick fruit feast.

Birthday Cheesecake

What is a birthday cheesecake? It’s what people within the food service industry call a cheesecake (or any food item) that will be expiring on that day. Of course it doesn’t really mean that the food would be inedible. It’s just that its food quality will go down a bit from that point on.

I’m just not sure why it’s called birthday when such an event actually marks the birth of something.

Mountain Dew and Caffeine

A while back, I have always been surprised to realize that Mountain Dew is a great energy drink, especially when I needed to stay awake at very late hours of the night. That is even though the drink is not advertised or marketed as an energy drink. And then I’ve read in a website that Mountain Dew contains at least 50 mg of caffeine.

That’s about a cup of regular coffee. So that’s why it keeps me awake and alert. Often it works even better than most energy drinks I’ve tried.

And it tastes even better. I’ve always preferred the sweet, lime-flavored drink. I also like its green packaging. Nowadays, whenever I needed to stay awake, I always grab a bottle of Mountain Dew. However, when there’s no Dew in sight, I just go back to my regular cup of coffee.

Chicken Pastel

I’m not really fond of eating chicken, however there is one dish that I like. It’s chicken pastel.

When I first encountered this dish, I was surprised to see a pie-looking food. And then when I dug in with my spoon, out came the hot and delicious chicken and vegetables filling. It was one of the most delicious thing that I ever tasted.

It has to be the crust. Whenever I go out and order chicken pastel, I make sure that there is a crust. Without it, I don’t consider it a chicken pastel. I’m not sure if the crust is required, but for me it is.

Maybe one reason why I like this dish is because I am a sucker for pies. I love pies such as apple pie, buko pie, blueberry pie and even pizza pie. The last one’s not a joke because I really love pizzas! Especially an all-cheese variant. It’s the perfect comfort food for me, and one of the main reasons why I am overweight.
