No Tricks, Just Treats with Welch’s Fruit Snacks this Halloween

Halloween is the season of a lot of things from horror movies, play dress up, to sugary candies. And just because the season of sweets is in high gear, the treats should not contain all those scary ingredients. That’s why for your trick or treat, consider a bagful or more of Welch’s Fruit Snacks that are made of real fruits with assorted flavors that the kids and even the whole family can enjoy! Certified made with fruit and fun, Welch’s Fruit Snacks not only delivers delicious taste, one serving of this chewy snack contains 100% Vitamin C and 25% Vitamin A and E. In the alphabet of vitamins, these three stand out as critical for growing kids. Aside from these benefits, who can resist the lure of free from preservatives, fats, and gluten? These qualities will surely far exceed expectations as too much consumption of those three are usually associated with headache and nausea. Children and kids are more susceptible to these that’s why their food should be watched out on Halloween

Sarah G.’s Secret to Decades of Success: Explore and Discover

The singer-actress has been in the industry for almost two decades now. William Shakespeare once said, “some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon ‘em.” This is something that no doubt applies to Sarah Geronimo, the multi-hyphenated star who is inarguably still one of the brightest personalities in the entertainment industry even after almost two decades of being a part of it. Some would say that Sarah was meant to rule the stage since she was young, but there was a lot of hard work invested in her career as well—something she had shown since childhood. She won the grand prize for the IBC television singing contest Star for a Night at the tender age of 14 and had been unstoppable ever since. Her rise was fast but expected. She broke through the top with new hits and soulful revivals, as well as albums that turned her presence into a form of pop culture on its own. But while her fast rise is something for the books, there’s something

Gastronomic Adventure at MOA Asian Street Food Fest 2019

Asia is about Street Food. Aside from being affordable and being readily available to masses, this where most popular street food started, such as dumplings, bubble tea and Milk Tea which are now enjoyed and recognized in different countries. In our country alone, street foods are one of the things that we Filipinos love, like isaw and kwek-kwek which are sold on kantos, even the banana cue and ice scramble that you loved in your childhood days are also street foods that are loved until now. With the recent rise of tourism in Asia, the local street food scene continues to level up its game. Food offerings are innovating from the traditional finger food to a variation of flavors worthy to explore. Discover the gastronomic roots of Asia through a food adventure from Korean, Japan, Taiwan, China, and the Philippines here at SM Mall of Asia! The MOA Asian Street Food Fest will be gathering our favorite popular Asian delicacies on October 21 -27 at the Main Atrium.
