Fro-yo Finds at Marina Foods



Fro-yo girl here. This was my first visit to the new Marina Foods supermarket in Fremont and of course I was on the look out for fro-yo finds. They have plain fro-yo popsicles! They're called Yogo Bar and a pack of nine plain popsicles sells for $4.59. The box says no artificial flavors or colors. I definitely wanted some but I wasn't going to be home for hours.



I also found a new brand of mochi called Awon. Marina had two flavors, plain and green tea, $1.99 for a 10.6 oz. package. The package shows the mochi on fro-yo, in drinks and sprinkled on a dessert. Awon mini mochi is manufactured in Taiwan. The green tea mochi is soft and sweet, with a surprisingly strong green tea (and good) flavor. Yum. I'm going to put some on fro-yo soon.

You know you love me. X0 X0, fro-yo girl.

    You can also find Awon mini mochi in San Francisco. Manila Oriental Market on Mission St. near Silver Ave. has it. Also, a market on Washington near Grant St. in SF's Chinatown has it.

    Awon mochi is not as good as Dae Doo Food's mochi.

    Thanks Anonymous. You really know where the mochi balls are at! I've never been to Manila Oriental Market. I need to try the plain kind to compare it fairly to Dae Doo Foods. I think Awon's mochi are pretty good.
