I had an inkling or instinct of some kind that #[pineapple](hashtag-5ba18a0833a3a9efa9d50fed) flavour would be killer 😏 when, in fact, it turned out to be an absolute freakin’ slaughter 😝

The #[sour](hashtag-5f6ad7225c597ba1c603a10e) tinge just elevated the fizzy to complete sense 🤯 These went so quick between just @[dafnelately](user-5feda5f9513d6100a18a8b3a) and I that I don’t even have the close up of the individual pieces like usual 😅 Also, I must say that the shape in classic pineapple slices is a cute touch ☺️

I don’t have the price on this with little help from their website 🙂‍↕️

If you’re into #[sourgummies](hashtag-6490b17092144d025ee6317c), these are @[dafnelately](user-5feda5f9513d6100a18a8b3a) worth a try 🤪

I don’t have a particular preference for #[sourgummies](hashtag-6490b17092144d025ee6317c) but I do love #[watermelon](hashtag-5e780b6026b7c6d8efc07f9f) flavour stuff 😛🍉 Also… @[Bears & Friends Singapore](brand-63306586437399d45ea7852e) can really do no wrong with their #[vegangummies](hashtag-5e244e1d3344b6b8c9a0e4eb) 🤩

Something about this #[gummy](hashtag-6009176094584d488fb86169) flavour being in belt form feels extra optimised for reasons I can’t quite explain 🤤 Like their bear counterparts, these #[vegan](hashtag-5b61361bc215c949ed60ce93) #[gummies](hashtag-5ca1c3f933a3a9efa95da4a5) are softer than the omni kinds 😝 There was no shortage of watermeloness in a way that wasn’t too sweet 🍬 and of course, the sour dusting was just *chef kiss* 🤌

These aren’t the cheapest but they were a gift so thank you @[dafnelately](user-5feda5f9513d6100a18a8b3a) ☺️

I just wish I could find these again 🥲 so far, I haven’t found them online yet either 🥸

For so long I was afforded the luxury of the fresh #[noodles](hashtag-5b61361bc215c949ed60ce5f) but they always have egg 😵 So, I got this instead! Frankly, it’s not the best… 🫥 but like this #[throwback](hashtag-5e040c773344b6b8c9f57d80) post, I’m just glad I got there 😮‍💨

Now… what is #[kolomee](hashtag-5b61361bc215c949ed60cf39) for if not to make #[kolokmee](hashtag-6412abd7c429c31b0835f9ff) 😛 So, that’s what I did. I was out of charsiew so this one had tempeh. It worked great as a flavour saver but the texture remained slightly stiff in the centre 🤨 I tried cooking it longer again but it kept overcooking 😳 Achieving that perfect QQ just wasn’t in the cards 🙂‍↕️ The best results only came as a fried #[meekolok](hashtag-6184d090f0f6953a23552e81) since it gets boiled then fried 🙃

This came at a very cheap price though! Just a mere RM5 or so 💵

I can’t necessarily recommend it but if you find yourself as desperate as I was, go for it 😅

This incredibly old #[throwback](hashtag-5e040c773344b6b8c9f57d80) dates back to almost 2 years ago 🙂‍↕️ Be that as it may, I believe this #[mockmeat](hashtag-5b614087f949e228c58f758e) product will always be worth sharing 🤓 My aunt gave it to my mom as I was just beginning my #[plantbased](hashtag-5b61361bc215c949ed60cd3a) journey…

Leveraging the ambiguity of the #[veganmeat](hashtag-5b6901a4f949e228c5a5e113) 😙 I decided to experiment with it as a #[veganpork](hashtag-5c599a3933a3a9efa9346541) alternative 🍖 and it worked perfectly 👌 The dish was a chilli salted fish pork. As expected, it was noticeably softer than a real carcass but that’s part of the appeal 😉 It’s a little fragile when cooked with too much liquid but it absorbed the flavours really well! Plus, you’ll never have to worry about it getting too hard 😏

It’s not the cheapest but I think I’ve seen it at the supermarket for RM11ish 🤔

With a gentle bite like this, I could see the likes of @[dafnelately](user-5feda5f9513d6100a18a8b3a) enjoying such a #[meatalternative](hashtag-5cba132333a3a9efa9cceae6) 😜

BEHOLD what is basically a #[vegan](hashtag-5b61361bc215c949ed60ce93) #[chickenflavour](hashtag-638113a4b80cfaf9d470eb68) #[stockcube](hashtag-5c0b170c33a3a9efa92a36e0) 🙌 I’ve had dry a few other mushroom stock powders but none compare to this glorious product 🥹 I guess the addition of the #[seaweed](hashtag-5b61361bc215c949ed60cd46) makes a big difference 😙

It works so well in my many Chinese-style gravies. Exhibit A is a tofu side dish in my regular rotation 😋 The multi-dimensional flavouring was exactly what I needed to make the base of my mushroom porridge 🥣 (cuz let’s face it… 😏 you can never have too mushroom 🍄‍🟫) Possibly best of all, it perfectly imbued the umami I was looking for in my dry mee sua dish 🤪

This was so long ago. Hence, this #[throwbackthursday](hashtag-5fc9736268329959886ae429) post. I can only recall that it was close to a very reasonable RM6? RM7?

Everyone needs these little cubes of magic in their life 🤩 Vegan or not 😝

I’m not one for #[premademix](hashtag-64e200c9c2d4d00cee4598e5) #[seasoning](hashtag-5bf965b433a3a9efa9e9cb08) packets but I thought I’d give this one a chance since it was an offering from @[dafnelately](user-5feda5f9513d6100a18a8b3a) ☺️

All that’s needed was a nice block of fresh soft tofu (or silken, if you wanna go softer) 😉 and a big ol’ pot to toss with the #[seasonings](hashtag-60aff4229d39aeb1b1402b75) 😋 It’s not as sour or #mala as it could be it’s still not bad for a quick meal in the making 👌 I think I’d still add MSG or something to make it more complex for the palate though 😜

I don’t know about the price but I think it was mentioned in passing that it wasn’t too much 🤓

I wouldn’t get this again but I imagine it would be more highly recommended for those who prefer a milder #[mapotofu](hashtag-5b61361bc215c949ed60ceb7) experience 😙

Golly!! This is what makes me proud to be #[malaysian](hashtag-5c7ff3e833a3a9efa9cfd371) 😆 I can’t express enough how glad I am for the ever-expanding #[plantbased](hashtag-5b61361bc215c949ed60cd3a) #[frozen](hashtag-5bf7a45733a3a9efa9e4e265) #[junkfood](hashtag-5b61361bc215c949ed60cdd7) 😏

Experiencing this in my pre-air fryer era, I had the pleasure of trying this the classic #[deepfried](hashtag-5c4b07bd33a3a9efa90001a8) way 😉 In terms of flavour, it’s not the saltiest but a decent amount of pepper (just the way I like it) 😋 Do it right and you get a sensibly bouncy but still soft interior ☺️ with a crisp bready exterior 😛 Careful not to over cook it as it can quickly dry out 😮‍💨 Even so, it went great on this Japanese salad I whipped up 😎

I recall this being somewhere around RM12 so it’s not the cheapest but I’d consider it worth it 🤓

It’s a gem of a find 🤩 I’d consider it worth trying!!

This is my top 1 favourite #[beancurd](hashtag-5b61361bc215c949ed60cd5a) product and #[eggreplacement](hashtag-5c01ee6d33a3a9efa907df35) extraordinaire!! 😝 Personally, I think this is a feat of #vegan gastronomical engineering 🤩

The easiest (and most unhealthy) way to enjoy this would be to deep fry or air fry them into mouthwatering crisps 🤤 I like em with either just a lil’ salt, pepper, and maybe garlic powder if I’m feelin’ oomphy 😛 Although, its texture was made to shine in a boiled and steamed context!! 🙌 It’s been most miraculous in replicating that egg slurry for my Cantonese noodle dishes 😋 They’re also great to top any noodle dish when you need a quick and simple fix of #[veganprotein](hashtag-5c6400f833a3a9efa9628809) 😙👌 Just throw on a few dashes of black salt and your golden!!

You get like 13ish “folds” — is what they look like — for like $3-4!! 😍 

Thus, this product has been cemented as my personal ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ choice!!! 🤪🫶🤟

P.S. It’s also great for frying with noodles OR rice (yes, those are both manicai fried dishes)

Though it’s not advertised properly, all the #[vegetarian](hashtag-5b61361bc215c949ed60ccb2) food here is actually #[vegan](hashtag-5b61361bc215c949ed60ce93) 😆 Many thanks again to my friend who used to be the operations manager for their ingredients 🙏

The omnivore version of this is their absolute signature. It’s all about the #[spice](hashtag-5bfcdf6833a3a9efa9f48d48) with the #[noodles](hashtag-5b61361bc215c949ed60ce5f) here 😉 It’s a bit of a bummer that the only #[veganfriendly](hashtag-5c64c5c433a3a9efa964a1db) #[noodle](hashtag-5b61361bc215c949ed60cd60) option is this #[vermicelli](hashtag-5c7fee1133a3a9efa9cfbf86) BUT it’s really well done 😛 I do love slurpin’ on this gentle but thick sauce soaker 😝 From the S to XXL spice level offered, I always get the standard M 😌 It’s a good level for struggling spice lovers like myself 🙃 It hits my savoury notes to great satisfactions! I feel as though I recognise the #[mockmeat](hashtag-5b614087f949e228c58f758e) which is a brand I can’t recall but it’s good!! It still has that slightly fibrous plant feel 😗

RM13.90 ‘cause times are tough so I can’t complain really… 😶

I do recommend as they’re a franchise that remains open later than the handful of vegetarian restaurants in Kuching 😅

I look back on these early days experiencing the tip of the #[plantbased](hashtag-5b61361bc215c949ed60cd3a) #[luncheon](hashtag-5fba30e44889f4214ac01186) #[meat](hashtag-5c06be5433a3a9efa91887bb) ☺️ Being in Kuching, I was but a beggar who could not choose. So, I was simply be grateful for each SG haul gifted from @[dafnelately](user-5feda5f9513d6100a18a8b3a)❣️

I wasn’t the most excited for this since the main accidentally vegan snacks I found were #[bbq](hashtag-5ba4c1b433a3a9efa9de4f3d) flavour 🥲 STILL 😄 I welcomed this sweetened savoury #[luncheonmeat](hashtag-6097458e4d108c1b0a60e0d2) 😗 It really did have one of THE most classic and not at all smoky #[barbeque](hashtag-5ba4c1b433a3a9efa9de4f43) taste. I’d declare the style something closer to the Asian persuasion 🤓 What I appreciated most from this brand is the texture 😝 It’s just in between the more planty fibrous cuts and the bouncy smooth Yumeat type 😗

I now know living in SG that sweet ol’ @[dafnelately](user-5feda5f9513d6100a18a8b3a) got this for something around $4 😙 I’d call that reasonable 👌

If you’re in the mood for an unsmoky #[barbecue](hashtag-5ba4c1b433a3a9efa9de4f3c) fix, this ain’t a half bad option 🙃
