PRINGLES!

I simply cannot resist Pringles.

And what makes potato chips all the more fascinating is its origin story:

According to a traditional story, the original potato chip recipe was created in Saratoga Springs, New York. By the late 19th century, popular version of the story attributed the dish to George Crum, a half black, half Native American cook at Moon’s Lake House, who was trying to appease an unhappy customer on 24 August 1853. The customer kept sending his fried potatoes back, complaining that they were too thick. Frustrated, he sliced the potatoes razor thin, fried them until crisp and seasoned them with extra salt. To Crum’s surprise, the customer loved them. They soon became called “Saratoga Chips”, a name that persisted into at least the mid-20th century.

4. DONUTS

I admit, it can be a little too sweet sometimes.

But for someone with a sweet tooth like myself, the saccharine goodness of the donuts are amazing.

3. NACHOS

When you watch a movie, what do you usually snack on?

For me, it’s almost always this:

cannot resist a bowl/plate of nachos with warm cheese! For others, their choice side is a bowl of salsa dip.

Regardless, nachos are an awesome invention. Whoever thought of eating them with cheese, thumbs up for you!

Someone once told me that pizza cures depression.

And I totally agree with that.

A slice of pizza is equivalent to a dosage of self-confidence!

My favourite pizza would be the Hawaiian Pizza, with its immense amount of cheese and ham slices.

It’s funny how the moment I think of fries, I think of McDonald’s fries.

I do really love McD’s fries, but there are great options out there too!

Take for example, Mos Burger’s Fries!

I love the thickness of Mos Burger fries, although the standard of their fries sometimes differ at different branches.

Recently, I’ve grown to enjoy truffle fries.

I’ve tried the truffle fries at some places but I’ve never really tasted anything mindblowing.

I’ll come up with a post once I’ve found the one.

Til then!
