Unfortunately, they don’t taste like Cheerios (I had my hopes so high)! They’ve glazed these O’s with something sugary and I have to admit defeat- they just don’t cut it.
Clearly, all is well if my biggest predicament is breakfast cereals.
I’m also determined to try an unripe mango with salt today, a common snack here; I’ve denied trying it up until now because I couldn’t understand why one would choose to eat an unripe fruit, especially one that is so scrumptious when ripe. But I might just love it- I’ll let ya know.
Unripe and with salt.....so did it taste good? Fruit like or vegetable like? I have had a slice of very ripe watermelon with salt on it. That is how they eat it in Texas.
ReplyDeleteWatermelon & salt? Strange. Maybe I'll try it next time I eat watermelon.
ReplyDeleteSo, the mango. I had bought it earlier in the week so by the time I was ready to jump in- it had ripened*hahah*. But it was perfect- not the overripe sweet sweet mango. Just the perfect softness with a litte zing to it! I'll let ya know when I find an unripe mango & salt!!!
My Cheerio loving pal. I am sorry that the O's tasted like sugary circles. Life is always giving us these strange moments isn't it? The lives of ex-pats and their cereals :) A real email is on its way to you my dear. So good to read your stories. One Love. xo
