Food Footnotes

Trying to keep up with my promise of posting my discoveries here on the blog on a monthly basis. Unfortunately, half of the year and I haven’t regularly posted month-end blog post. I’ve been posting more regularly on Instagram stories but since it gets deleted after a day, still posting here now even though it’s been months late. 🙂

This roundup is all about food! 😀

Portable and easy to use. It’s lightweight and stores easily too. A set is at Php 275 (small and large food cover) and is available at @shopsueystore

HONEST BEE FOOD DELIVERY

Not gonna lie, I’ve been putting off preparing food for my family over summer. The heat makes it more challenging to cook. Plus my kids & I were running here and there for their summer activities. What’s a momma gotta do? Well order and have food delivered through Honest Bee.

You can have some food from their partner restaurants or groceries delivered to you. Ordered one of our favorite foods for lunch–DEC and also got some of my favorite snacks from Take Root and Founding Farmers. It’s easy to order really. Just register and input your address and choose! One thing I like about Honest Bee is that I choose which time I want my items delivered. Download Honest Bee app on Google Play Store or the iOs for free.

NUTTVIA HAZELNUT SPREAD

I’ll always be a sucker for sweets. Like I said, sweetness is my weakness and on days when I crave so something sugary and sweet, I indulge. Thankfully there are healthier options when it comes to satisfying our sweet tooth. Discovered Nuttvia hazelnut spread and I love it! It’s the same sweet tasting hazelnut spread but is 97% less sugar. As if that’s not good enough, this Australian made hazelnut spread is made with ZERO palm oil. Getting my sweets without the guild!

Nuttvia is created by Natvia, the leading 100% natural sweetener and is available in Rustan’s Marketplace.

ZOJIRUSHI INDUCTION HEATING RICE COOKER

Ever wondered why Japanese rice is so darn good? Well aside from the rice itself, it’s the way it is cooked. Remember my visit at Zojirushi Greenhills store? Sharing with you my love for the Zojirushin IH Rice Cooker. If you love rice as much as I do (because we Pinoys love our kanin) get yourself a Zojirushi IH Rice Cooker because it really cooks rice differently. Whether it’s white, brown, or red rice, it tastes more flavourful and it’s waaaaay fluffier. I can’t believe I lived thirty two years eating mediocre rice! The IH Rice Cooker has menu for specific kinds of rice, even sushi and porridge but what makes it special is that it specifically cooks brown rice better than normal rice cookers because of its GABA BROWN menu or brown rice activation–  available to activate brown rice for increased nutritional values.

I always find cooking brown rice and quinoa on a rice cooker to be a hassle (either they’re undercooked or overcooked) but not anymore with my Zojirushi IH Rice Cooker. Look at how it turned out to be–brown rice all fluffy and the quinoa was cooked perfectly too!

I love preparing healthy meals more because of my Zojirushi Induction Heat Rice Cooker.

Zojirushi Induction Heat Rice Cooker is available at their Greenhills store.
