Jul 7 New Product Alert: Soy Pudding

I’m always on the run so I love having snacks that are fast and easy for on the go. Last week, I was invited to take a tour of the AFC Soy Foods Factory to see how the tofu and soymilk you eat ends up on your plate. In addition to being able to see the entire production process, I also had the opportunity to sample some of the new AFC products on the market!

Say hello to one of my new favorite healthy snacks…

This is AFC's new soy pudding. If you go to dim sum and you like doufuhua/tofu pudding or flan, then you’ll love AFC’s version of it. Their soy pudding is served cold, which is great especially in the hot summer weather we’re experiencing right now. The texture of the pudding is extremely soft and melt in your mouth-both of which are qualities I look for when eating a good tofu pudding!There’s a perforated line in the middle. You just tear it apart grab a spoon and you’re ready to go. I try to eat breakfast as much as I can, but sometimes it’s hard to make the time in the AM. For the past week, I’ve been eating these soy puddings for breakfast.(Such cute packaging. I felt like I was back in school eating Lunchables!)

The soy pudding comes in a slew of different, natural flavors. It's cholesterol free, has no preservatives, and is also gluten free! After testing all the different available flavors, I decided that my favorite one was lychee. The lychee flavor was not overpowering. It still tasted like soy pudding, but has a slight sweet lychee aftertaste, which wasn’t too sweet. It was a good balance.I also love the cute little mascots on the package. Each different flavor has a different member of the family. You can collect them all. The large gift pack of 4 soy puddings are avaible for only $4, or a box of twelve (choice of any favors) for $10. You can find these new AFC Soyfoods Soy Puddings at your local Chinese/Asian supermarket or at the next 626 Night Market, which will be on July 18th and 19th at the Sanita Anita Race Track!
