Are you fond of eating junkfoods? There are lots of people saying that junkfoods is not good for the health. But I can't help myself eating those.
Well, I am fond eating junkfoods but with rice. If I don't like the viand we have in the table, I will buy junkfoods and make it as my viand. Kinda weird but yeah that's me. Maybe someone was like me too. Well, hope so.
These are the junkfoods that I eat as my viand.
Halo-Halo
Oops! It's not what you think. It's not the cold halo-halo which is good for summer. It's a junkfoods that contains nuts, green peas, corn and fired biscuits. It's a little spicy and I like it so much. I love eating this one as a viand especially if the rice is hot. This one cost 1 peso before, I don't know if it's still 1 peso now.
I still remember when my Mother reprimanded me when she cooked fern as our viand but I didn't ate it instead I ate halo-halo as my viand. I ate lots of rice because of it. I really don't like eating fern cause it's slimy. And it helps me drink lots of water too. After eating, I felt so full. Actually, when I was in college I still ate it as my viand if I got shortened with my allowance. It's one of my savior from hunger. Haha.
Chicharon Baka
This one is my favorite. This cost 1 peso too. And it have free vinegar but sometimes there's none. Since we have lots of vinegar in the house, it's fine with me. Especially that our vinegar have lots of spices like onion, chilli, ginger, black pepper and garlic. I always ate this kind of junkfood when I graduated at high school. Especially when I am watching tv. My siblings also got curious with the taste so they tried. So, next days we will buy 1 pack of it worth 17.00 pesos, and we'll make it as our viand. Our father noticed and scolded us all so everytime he's not in the house, we will buy chicharon baka to make our viand. Tamad kasi magluto ng ulam hahaha.
Lumpia Shanghai
This one is delicious too. I am addicted with it because of the cheese. I can eat 10 packs of it because I feel not full everytime I eat this chichirya. Our Lola was selling this one, so sometimes we will just go there and have some without paying. This is also good taste if you put it on a hot rice. Yummy. Try it guys hahaha.
Safari
This one is my favorite of all. I started eating it when I was a child. This is one of my father's snack before when he stopped smoking. He said, he likes to eat this after eating lunch. Pampawala ng umay daw. I can say that this cornik is so delicious. The spice and salty taste makes it perfect. I prefer eating this one than those high price junkfoods (lol, wala kasi ko pambili talaga kaya prefer ko to dahil piso lang.) It's good to eat while watching movie. But I love it more if I eat it with rice. I don't know what's with me but I like eating some junkfoods with rice.
This junkfoods serves as my viand if I don't like our foods in the house. But most of the day, if we don't have nothing, I will just buy this junkfoods. You see, it's a savior to me to have an appetite in eating rice. It's better to have this than having salt as viand. Yes, just laugh there but it's true. It's true that we experienced to have only salt and vinegar as our viand cause we don't have anything. Everytime we don't have in the table other than rice, we will buy atleast five packs of junkfoods that was mentioned above.
When I was in college, I can say that it's a survival state once you study college especially if your allowance was not enough. I had try to save money because I know there would be lits of contributions need to pay. Sometimes, my allowance won't be enough for a week that is why I will buy junkfoods to be my viand. I am just glad that God gave me a blessing with this foods. I know it's not good in the health but it helped me a lot.
How about you? Have you tried it? The comment section is open for conversation. Hihihi. I just want to know if you tried it.
