Sweets!!!

I've been craving for all things sweet lately, ask my husband who had to go the extra mile (literally) to get me the Cello's doughnuts I was craving for. I've always eaten sweets, but not in a habitual manner, but as of this writing, anything that's sweet, particularly chocolate-y seems so irresistible for me. The only thing that's stopping me is really my throat, I've been kinda prone to tonsillitis ever since I could remember. Anyway, so what's my point. I just found out an interesting fact that could be behind the reason for my added craving for sweets - according to http://www.babycenter.com.ph/ at 24 weeks, baby's taste buds are developing and along with it is also the baby's sweet tooth - thus my sweet cravings. Seems viable for me. :) Ain't it sweet? Literally. =p

Above is a drawing of a sweet tooth from http://www.thedadproject.com/ D.A.D stands for a drawing a day. :) Mine would probably be devouring chocolates and lots of DQ Blizzards. =p

My first Royce' experience

I've always loved eating potato chips. I even handle marketing of potato chips products for a living. So I didn't need a lot of convincing when a colleague of mine told me to try Royce Potato chip Chocolate. And the raves from so many people made me stop and take action.

I remember asking my brother to buy me 'THE' Royce' Potato Chip Chocolate when he was at Greenbelt with my family. Little did I know that I was in for a surprise. I went home looking forward to try the new snack, but my thrill was watered down when my brother asked me to reimburse Php540.00 for the box of Royce' he bought for me. I knew it was expensive, but Php540.00? Sheesh... Had I known, I could've just walked past the stall and asked for a sampler. Hehe. I was still in disbelief, so I didn't rush to eat it. I even told my mom I'd just put off eating it 'til Christmas (ang mahal eh...).

Seeing that the box won't last 'til Christmas, I opened it the following day. I was excited at the sight of the chocolate. Chew... chew... chew... Hmm... I waited for that something... after around 5 chips, it still didn't come. Nope, no wonderful burst of flavors here. I know the product has a lot of following, but my own opinion is this... The potato chips are good and the chocolate is good... but on its own... At some point, I felt the chocolate was too overpowering that the saltiness was a bit negligible. But maybe that's just me. It fell short of my expectations from all the hype Royce' Potato Chip Chocolate got.

Try it for yourself. It's different, but maybe not my kind of different.
