Say Cheese Singapore!

Sponsored Review

Home grown dairy brand SCS has launched a series of programs to educate Singapore’s young children on the health benefits of eating cheese through the aptly named ‘Say Cheese Singapore!’ campaign.

The girls were too excited to see cheese, they didn’t give me the chance to take a photo of the hamper sent. Basically, the four flavours are Smokey BBQ, Original, Reduced Fat & Black Pepper.

Of the four flavours, the two more exotic and interesting ones are the Smokey BBQ & Black Pepper. Personally, I prefer the Black Pepper, you can taste the pepper but not spicy. BBQ tasted slightly less inviting, maybe because saltiness and BBQ doesn’t blend that well.

 

Not surprising, both the girls have their personal favourite as well. Joey chose the BBQ and Jayne chose Black Pepper (the younger one has a closer taste-liking as mine for quite several things).

Yummy!

Ooh! Nice!

 

I’m thankfully both my girls like to eat cheese, in fact they will eat it for breakfast almost every morning and sometimes even as snacks during the day or night. Eat right starts young! Thank you SCS!
