Bought some Kefir at Herb’s Best International at Mercato BGC
I was on a probiotic binge last Sunday and I just happened to stumble upon some kefir at at the Herbs Best International stall at Mercato in Bonifacio Global City. I realize now that kefir is not really their main item but it was there and hopefully it had enough probiotics in them.
I just checked the Herb’s Best International website and it seems their big thing are those flavor condiment mixes they sell pre-packaged. Instead of the usual chemical laden flavorings by those multi-national brands, Herb’s Best has managed to package the actual ingredients in their flavor mixes:
- No MSG
- No Preservatives
- No Artificial Flavors
Now that’s awesome. That is something to tell the Filipinos abroad that no longer will they have to settle and poison themselves with preservatives, msg and artificial flavor mixes, they can now get the real thing.
At home we of course get fresh ingredients, all the time, but our loved ones in some other countries need all the help they can get. And Herb’s Best may have the answer.
