Loved the Vitasoy Plus Milky

I've been addicted to Soy Milk which I often get from stores or the regular Taho man who frequent my neighborhood as he carries around several bottles together with the soy curds. Vita Soy has been very familiar to me especially the bottled ones which are available in supermarkets, those fridges just look so nice with them so I had to make sure I take them home for snacks and stuff. I don't usually think about the health benefits, but apparently there is. It's a good source of potassium and several vitamins and minerals. It's also as nutritious as cow's milk but it has lesser calories, so it's somehow a more nutritious version of it.

I tried the Vitasoy Plus Milky which is a new a product of Vitasoy-Universal Robina Corporation (VURC). It has a much cleaner, creamier consistency and flavor which I liken to milk as it is more neutral. I mixed it up with coffee and it didn't affect the flavor, in a sense, it actually enhanced it as it made it appear with some nutty notes, a thing I actually like to happen.

 

This actually is good for me since I don't have to add sugar, it has 2.4% per service so it's enough as it is for a drink. I even drink it up as is with ice and blitzed veggies so I have my daily allowance of vitamins and minerals, which you can do also for kids. It also contains very little saturated fat but more calcium, and overall, a pretty good alternative to usual cow's milk. It's pretty good for vegans and I've seen my friends enjoy this while watching movies rather than soda.

It's also best for anyone who's lactose intolerant, as it has none of that whatsoever. It's why I actually loved it, and along with that, a really nice alternative to overly sweet stuff I usually have during small snacks. Best of all, it's quite cheap at Php 85 which you can buy in leading groceries, Shopee and Lazada. If you want to know more about it, see http://www.vitasoy.com/ or VitasoyPH on FB today!

Try The Vitasoy Plus Milky Banana Oat Smoothie

It's so hot out today and I'm pretty exhausted because of the weather. I wanted to have something real cool and filling so I wouldn't just collapse on the side of the road. I've tried Vitasoy Plus Milky a couple weeks ago and honestly, it was one of the most refreshing drinks I've tried this season.

It doesn't feel much different from actual creamy milk but a little nutty, so I was actually cool with it if it came into something fancy like a drink with things on it. This is a smoothie recipe from the good folks at Vitasoy. It also takes a few ingredients at home to make something real good.

Here are the ingredients:

1/2 cup oats (which you can blend or soak in milk overnight)
1 Cavendish banana
1 tbsp Pure Honey
1 cup Vitasoy Plus Milky

Just put ingredients in a blender and wait for a few minutes. You can leave it more than 2 minutes if you would like to make it smooth, but if you would like it a little chunky, a blitz of a minute would be so fine. You can even play around with the recipe by using your own favorite fruit or fruits in season. 

If you're in the Philippines, you can use mangoes, add soy milk and it's going to be one of the best things you'll ever have as refreshments. There are more recipes over at Vitasoy Philippines Facebook page, you should go get info there! 

CPFI Launches 100% Plant Based unMEAT

Century Pacific Food Incorporated just launched unMEAT, their plant based meat alternative which is now available in Swift Meat E-Tindahan outlets and in Shopee and Lazada. If you are looking for branches, you may find them via bit.ly/unmeatshopee and bit.ly/unmeatlazmall or in Kitchen Marks bit.ly/unMEATxKMShopee and bit.ly/unMEATxKMLazada.


CPFI is a global company with a Philippine footprint. We are aware that there are players in this place, but we are offering an alternative. Price is close to actual meat, the look and taste of meat without any preservatives. At Century, they have some of the most variety of products. Unmeat is plant based, protein rich, has fiber, and has the same benefits as with other plant based burgers. Our r&d worked hard to make this the tastiest but with less than ten ingredients.

 

Their production has been done in Wenger Manufacturing Inc. and their goal was to find something that had texture, the feel and flavor of actual meat. Century Pacific met with them and found how good they had. In 2008, they were already attending plant based proteins and wanted to have something that has the flavor of meat, but with all plant alternatives. They use NON GMO soy products for these. Symrise Flavor decode, design and deliver flavors that would work for the consumer. It also lasts 9 months under frozen conditions. They cost it quite nicely too at Php 135 for the unMEAT Burger Patties (226g). The unMEAT Sausages (225g) cost the same while the unMEAT Nuggets (200g) is at Php 120 and the unMEAT Giniling (200g) is at Php 120 which means it's all quite affordable.

 

 

So, will you try this out and cook your usual dishes with it?
