Pacific Love

Since i've been trying my hand on healthier living, i thought i should broaden my perspective on food choices. So finally i entered Healthy Options with a friend and scoured the racks for some interesting finds. I really wanted an alternative to milk since... well i'm not exactly a milk person. I like it with my cereal or smoothie but that's as far as my relationship with milk goes. I found these (above photo). It got me interested because of the flavors. I love anything hazelnut! I opted to purchase the handy sized ones 'cause i didn't want to buy a big carton and end up wasting money just because i didn't like how it tastes. Sadly, my hazelnut lusting self did not fall in love with Pacific Natural Goods' Hazelnut Chocolate drink. It was weird. It didn't have the hazelnut taste i was expecting. It tasted like soil mixed in with some water and cocoa powder (not that i've ever tried that). This kinda destroyed my streak on anything hazelnut. :( 

On the other hand, i loooooooved the Almond Chocolate drink! The almond flavor really worked well with the chocolate. It was a perfect blend. This would be great for afternoon snacks. That one drink didn't make me feel like it was a failed attempt and made me excited to try their other products. Now if only it'd be available in local supermarkets so i wouldn't have to drive all the way to ATC to buy me some. :))
