Limited Edition Snack Spotlight :: Latte Base Tiramisu Chocolate

Latte Base is a drink offered by the brand Boss. Boss specializes in canned coffee and as someone who enjoys coffee...I've had quite a few of their drinks. This particular drink is a Latte base! The bottle is 490mL but it's meant to make 9 drinks! Yes, 9 drinks. How? Well, it's a base for lattes. So you add your desired amount of water or milk to the base to make a drink! Add ice cream to make a float, add soy milk for a soy latte, hot or cold...whatever you like!!

This particular flavour is Tiramisu Chocolate. It's incredibly sweet. As of right now I've just added milk to it and it closely resembled the canned coffees you can buy at convenience stores. I plan on trying to add water and making it hot over the weekend if I can. I've only used two of the servings so far! You mix one part base, 3 parts of whatever else you want to add. I'm assuming for black coffee...you just add water (my Japanese reading skills are still developing so this involves a lot of guess work).

A serving size is 57 calories, 13.3g of carbohydrates, 0g of fat, 63mg of sodium and 2g of protein.

Ramen Reviews :: Maru-Chan Shoyu Ramen

Another look at some Maru-Chan ramen. This time the Shoyu (soy sauce) flavour. I enjoy shoyu ramen because it's got a less oily texture in comparison to tonkatsu ramen. This was no exception to that rule. It was definitely less oily than the previous ramens. It had a nice soy flavour to it. The noodles were thicker and I enjoyed their firm texture. They had a nice chewiness to them. I dolled up my bowl of ramen with a hardboiled egg, boy choi, carrots and bean sprouts. I split the noodles and broth in half to make two meals from it as I typically do. One package is a bit lower in calories than the previous ones. A package is 340 calories, 66g of carbohydrates, 4g of fat, 10g of protein and 2,300 mg of sodium. Instant ramen is always going to be high in sodium which is why it's important to be mindful and not eat it frequently. Also to dress it up with as many veggies and good things as you can!!

Ramen Reviews ::

This is another old one that I had originally placed on my instagram story. (Hence the words on the picture) There is tons of instant ramen here, an entire aisle of it at any grocery store. There's a lot to pick from and thus I can often feel a little overwhelmed and just stick to what I'm familiar with instead of braving the unknown. Furthermore, lots of these packets are just noodles and broth (or sauce) but the images on the packaging have vegetables and meat. A bunch of goodies. Basically, you can just buy these and just eat the noodles. However, what I prefer to do is deck them out. Go to the vegetable area and grab a bunch of veggies to pad out the noodles. You end up with a much better dish overall and (depending on how many veggies you add) you might be able to stretch the noodles into two meals instead of one! Now I no longer have this wrapper so I can't properly give you a lot of information besides the image you see above. It was a tonkatsu ramen, aka, ...
