I eat yogurt every day as an after meal snack, and I normally like to add some sort of fruit and granola. While I like using a brand of granola from Hawaii called Anahola, I am running out of it so I have been having to supplement it with other types of granola. One recent…

I enjoy eating ice cream on an occasional basis, but most of the time when I eat ice cream it is just out of a pint; however, recently I have been eating Sublime Ice Cream Sandwiches from Trader Joe’s. I just happened to come across these ice cream sandwiches when I was shopping at Trader…

Trader Joe’s has so many great food/beverage options to choose from, regardless of whether you are looking for fresh food, frozen food, etc. One of my personal favorite things to buy from Trader Joe’s is their 100% tangerine juice. I think Trader Joe’s Tangerine Juice is much better than your typical orange juice, and even…

Although I try to make as much food as I can from fresh ingredients, sometimes it is nice just to heat up/bake a frozen meal. Oftentimes though, frozen meals don’t really taste as good as fresher meals (for obvious reasons). Just Bare Chicken Nuggets are sold at Costco in a large bag (4 pounds of…

While I don’t eat desserts often, I do enjoy eating ice cream on some occasions. On even rarer occasions, I do think macarons make a great dessert as well (especially if they are high quality macarons). When I was at the grocery store recently, I saw Mavens Creamery in one of the freezers. I had…

When I was in high school, my favorite ice cream brand was always Haagen Dazs. I always loved a lot of their flavors, and they seem to retain the best consistency (at least in my freezer). When I went to college though, I did not eat as much ice cream anymore since I didn’t have…

Haupia is a traditional Hawaiian coconut milk-based dessert, but it is also a very common ice cream flavor in Hawaii. They serve haupia ice cream at a lot of restaurants, but you can also find Roselani’s Haupia Ice Cream at any local Hawaii supermarket. Roselani was started in 1932 by Manuel Nobriga on Maui, and…
Biscoff is originally a cookie from Belgium, and it is known for being a cookie that you can eat with coffee. It is hard to describe the flavor if you have never had Biscoff before, but the best way I can think of is a cookie flavor with a peanut butter texture. While I do…
In a previous post, I wrote about Lee Kum Kee’s Minced Garlic. While that is my most commonly used ingredient when I cook, Gochujang Paste is a close second. Gochujang is Korean ingredient, but it can go well with almost any Asian cuisine. I am not quite sure what is in Gochujang, but the taste…
