Choco Mallows by Fibisco has been in the market for decades. Newer and more expensive brands have come but Fibisco has managed to stay alive.
I still remember this as one of the more pricey treats in our school canteen, along with ChocNut, Growers, ang other Goya treats. This was the era when Sunta, Sarsi, Lem-O-Lime and Choco-vim were the more familiar brands of bottled drinks aside from Pepsi and Coca Cola.
This chocolate coated soft chewy treat always takes me back in time. Munching on one brings me back those fond memories of my youth.
Call me sentimental, but choco mallows, I love.
Thanks for posting this, Gita.
ReplyDeleteI love,love Choco Mallows! ANd I love the fact that they havent changed the packaging. It's still in it's tacky, original form...the matingkad na yellow with matching retro font. Ha-ha..so seventies.
Same taste din..pero medyo mas maliit na yung size compared to how it was 20 or so, years ago.
Favorite ko din to! Meron ngang binebenta sa may MRT and sa tiangge na cheaper unbranded mallows, pero iba pa rin ang lasa ng orig!
ReplyDeleteleeney, thats why it is so easy to find sa groceries... kasi the packaging has never changed no!
ReplyDeletesis, baka naman tayo ang lumaki after 20 yrs kaya mukang lumiit ang mallows, hehehe... btw, i was in elementary during the '70s. dont bother doing the math. hehehe... ;-)
nina, mismo! pilit ginagaya, hindi naman nila kaya... dun tayo sa orig na, pinoy pa, diba! ;-)
I miss Puffi-Cone and RTO. =(
ReplyDeleteAy grabe, these are my favorites!
ReplyDeleteWhen I was pregnant with my second child, I would buy boxes of mallows and hide them in the closet. I was so maramot, I didn't want to share. Buti na lang hindi ako na-CS dahil lumaki ng husto ang baby! Hehehe
My friends super looooooooove this! Unfortunately - I'm not a fan of chocolates.. I can't relate.. :( Huhu..
ReplyDeletehouseband00..... hmmm, di ko ata alam ang Puffi-cone... it sounds good, though.. ;-)
ReplyDeleterhodora, buti na lang hindi nilanggam ang cabinet mo! hahaha...

i actually know where to buy these mallows pero cheaper.. only difference is nde sha naka repack like yung nasa photo.. yung commissary nila sa makati pede bumili ng lahat ng products nila pero per bag.. yung bpi bpi sa tapat ng mcdo sa pasong tamo.. pag pinasok mo yun sa kabilang door merong maliit na room dun pede bumili ng mallows, biscuits, butter cookies etc.. hehehe.. i guess yung mga nasa mrt stations parang ganun den pero depende sa brand.. i buy from there.. biten ako yun sa grocery e.. hahahha!! tip lang if you really love these choco mallows.. pinapadala ko pa den sa sister ko sa states to by the bulk.. $3 a piece daw sa filipino store kasi.. grabe no!
ReplyDeletebytchgoddess, uy, thanks for the info on the commissary! if the need arises, like may parties or may big gatherings or picnics, ill surely check that place out. for now, kasya pa naman sa amin ni mon ang isang box. hehehe.. hindi pa naman kami nag aagawan. hahaha...
ReplyDeletewow, ginto pala ang price nito in teh states! grabe talaga!
thanks again, sis.
Along with ChocNuts, Choco Mallows is one of my big, big favorites. Each time I open a box, they're gone in 30 minutes. Ang hirap mag control if i have these before me, sira agad ang diet!
ReplyDeletebugsybee, hindi nga sira ang budget natin since cheap lang sha, sira naman ang figure natin! hahaha...
ReplyDeleteI love Choco Mallows too. Sobrang sarap! I can finish a box in one sitting. Hehe.. I also know where the Comfoods commissary in Makati is. They also sell yung chocolate cunchies and flat tops doon.

ReplyDeletesuper fave esp. if galing sa ref, mas chewy yung mallows! nauubos ko mag-isa yung 1 box.. once you pop,you cant stop e! haha.. sama mo na yung chocnut sa next entry mo sis. haha o meron na na ba? food reminiscing ba? :D
