Seleco Rolling Bite Mini Review

I bought (and consumed) Seleco Rolling Bite Mini (topped with crispy fish variant) a couple months ago. The reason this post took so long to be posted was because I couldn't find a way to write a decent introduction for a pack of rolled up seaweed. A solution to that problem was using that backstory as a way to supplant my nonexistent introduction. *coughs to distract the readers* Find out more about the product and what I think of it after the jump!

San Pellegrino Aranciata Review

Italy, home of espresso, Ferrari, and pizza. Incidentally, it is also home to San Pellegrino, maker of inexplicably expensive bottled water - and as I recently found out - sparkling orange beverage. Is the ostentatious price and strangely fancy name enough to make San Pellegrino Aranciata better than our sari-sari store staple orange soda? Find out after the jump!

OKF Milky Be Happy Review

Most people ask, "why?" Why is the sky blue? Why did the chicken cross the road? Bakit pa ba ako nagtitiis? (luh s'ya) But there are the dreamers, the innovators, the ones that ask "Why not?" Unfortunately, people who think that carbonating milk is a good idea also ask "why not". Find out more about OKF Milky Be Happy and what I think about it after the jump!

Cocio Classic Chocolate Milk Review

Well-educated, wealthy, liberal, and probably the only country you can think of that starts with the letter "D" (okay, Djibouti. Whatever nerds!), Denmark is basically utopia with vikings. But could the country that invented LEGO® also bless us with the world's best chocolate milk? Find out more about Cocio Classic Chocolate Milk and what I think about it after the jump!

Moo-Mates Root Beer Milk Review

The human race has gone where no other terrestrial species has gone before. In less than a few hundred years, we've harnessed the power of the sun for electricity, sent a man to the moon, invented pizza. But on a recent supermarket run, I saw Moo-Mates Root Beer Milk. Is this what God intended? Has science gone too far? Find out more about the product and what I think about it after the jump!

The Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf Tea Trio Review

They say that one of the signs you're slowly (but surely) becoming a tita is when you spend more than five minutes browsing the tea aisle of the supermarket. I spent ten. And I left with The Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf Tea Trio. Find out more about the product and what I think about it after the jump!

Welcome to The Impulse Grocer!

Lucky you, you found my blog! You are now blessed for the next 12 hours.

Since this is the *first post*, this is will tell you what this blog is about - and introduce you to my writing style. This might also come in handy once I become famous, which will more or less happen within the next five years, so keep tabs on me.


As for the blog description, here it goes: The Impulse Grocer chronicles my life as a victim of supermarket science. Basically, I would blog about whatever product I accidentally buy on a routine (or impulse) trip to the supermarket - or ,you know, anywhere else - and how these purchases affect my life positively or adversely. Aside from that, I plan to periodically post restaurant and other product reviews should I feel to do so.


I'm still thinking of how I would write posts up - as in how the flow of my writing, or how I would go about reviewing something. So understand that my first few posts are all works in progress. Also keep in mind that I am a student with limited income. By that I mean I can't spend all of my weekly allowance on weird products that happen to find themselves in my shopping cart by the time I get to the checkout counter. May control pa rin naman ako kahit konti.

So while I go write up my actual first post, please take the time to bookmark my blog. I think you'd pick up some good information one way or another. Also, as I may have said - I might be famous one day - so it's very wise to read early on before the others catch up.
