Taste is generally a good place to get international foods, although GREAT is much better.
They did an American Festival promotion, the American products I got were Cashew fruit juice, Coffee fruit juice, Pomegranite soda, chocolate cherries, and some other items, which were interesting too for this review.
CASHEW FRUIT JUICE:
Had an exotic fruit taste with some nutty sediment in it.
Apart from that the packaging was great!
The colour was cloudy peach.
Quoted from the website: http://www.onenaturalexperience.com/
The Cashew Fruit has two parts – the Fruit and the Nut.
The nut actually grows from the bottom of the “Cashew Apple.”
The Cashew Apple is an oval or pear-shaped fruit that develops from the receptacle of the cashew flower. Called the Cashew Apple, it ripens into a yellow and/or red fruit about 5–11 cm long.
COFFEE FRUIT JUICE:
There was only a faint taste of coffee, more strong on the strawberry.
HANSEN POMEGRANITE juice:
Nice concept, however this one was sugar free, hence I felt its sweetness tasted artificial.
CHOCOLATE COVERED CHERRIES:
Apart from cherries, they also have blueberries, strawberries, almonds, cashews.
The chocolate covered cherries are nice and plump, about the size of a fresh cherry but flatter. The chocolate coating is a rich glossy brown.
The dark chocolate goes well with the sweet cherry, and neither elements overpower each other.
The cherries inside are dried sour cherries, with a center that is soft and moist with a nice tart flavor that contrasts well with the dark chocolate coating.
It is a bit like eating a chocolate covered raisin, however there is more bite to it due to the cherries size.
PEARL ROYAL COCONUT:
I was so surprised they don’t sell coconut water in HK, they can be readily found in UK under the brand of Rubicon and in any indian/pakistani shops.
The similar products here usually contain young coconut pieces and sweetened to the extent that it is syrupy.
I really liked this design, a plastic young coconut with a carton inside.
BROCCOLI CHIPS:
These are vacuum fried broccoli, which just looks like dehydrated pieces of broccoli.
I suppose it is more interesting than eating crisps and just a tad healthier eating a real piece of veg than reconstituted fried potato.
Next time, I would like to experiment putting dried cheese powder on it resulting in cheese broccoli in snack form.
Greenday Thai also does other snacks too such as banana chips, pineapple chips, taro chips, okra chips.
The packaging was done very nicely, very western appeal with all the nutritional values, and at least with perfect English too.
