Ice Skrambol - Ice Scramble - Ice Crambles

Skrambol - Ice Skrambol - Ice Scramble - Ice Crambles - Ice Crumbles ... whatever you call this popular milky-icy-strawberry cooler, the Skrambol will always have a special place in my heart. 

The Skrambol has been around for ages... well, at least as far as I can remember. Today, you could still get hold of old school Skrambol outside schools, churches, or from your resident ambulant food vendor for 5.00-15.00 pesos per cup (depending on the size). In the good ol' days, Skrambol vendors even use Brown Cow to top it with. Yum yum! The milky-icy strawberry flavored slush is definitely one of my comfort foods... extra powdered milk topping please!

Snack Pack, Snack Pack!

As much as I love dining out, I still try my best to limit my food/calorie intake whenever I'm at home or at work. However, we all know that when we try to go on a diet we don't really get that much choices, especially in terms of dessert or yummy filling snacks. Most would just munch on crackers to keep their hunger at bay; but we all have to admit... crackers are quite boring, bland... and a normal serving (around 3 rectangular soda crackers at 120-170 calories) is definitely not filling. Here in the Philippines, diet meals and yummy quick fix diet food are really not that cheap and readily available unlike getting to choose from a wide array of gourmet diet food in America.

Since I've made it a habit to check the Nutrition Facts of most Food Products/Items, I've discovered that the Snack Pack pudding cup makes for a low-calorie yet yummy, filling, and chocolatey treat! At just 120 calories and 30 calories from fat, the Hunt's Snack Pack has got to be my favorite diet treat of all time :-)

Whenever we head to Baguio, I make it a MUST to always get my stash of scrumptious goodies and "pasalubong " from Good Shepherd. I know that there are numerous souvenir shops and stores selling Baguio City goodies and treats, at waaaay cheaper prices too... but my heart really belongs to Good Shepherd :-)

Number ONE on my list would be their oh-so-yummy PEANUT BRITTLE. I just Loooove the sweet and salty goodness of their Peanut Brittle. I have already managed to eat one large plastic jar in one sitting... seriously :-) Good Shepherd's Peanut Brittle may cost more than those being sold for 3-for-100 pesos or 4-for-100 pesos, but once you open the jar, you'll see that your Php 200.00+ pesos is all worth it ;-)
