220/356: Gams Pantli

right, let's catch up on some blogging. I am falling far behind again. Not good, NOT GOOD!

I had a Gams sausage for the first time. Ignore the bottle on the picture, that is something for a later post. If you don't know what a Gams is. This is one:

The Sausage was good but nothing spectacular. In fact I was expecting a little more. Since this has happened quite a while ago and was nothing interesting, I will not waste more time on this post. Here, have a picture:

216/356: Ktipiti Extra

I am not actually sure what I ate today.

Yes I know what the ingredients are (I checked before I bought it) but I am neither sure where it comes from or if the name on it is a brand or the name of the dish. As I am too lazy at the moment to research it. I will just leave you wondering. It is cheese with other stuff mixed in. I assumed it is meant to be eaten with bread so that's what I did and the result was pretty good. It's just a bit much for one person, also it could be a bit spicier.

110/356: Arabian Chickpea Soup

Something interesting that I have learned over the course of the last 110 days is, how much food there is out there that I have never had before. Now I am not even talking about all the foreign dishes but food that is widely available here in Bern. Some of that has been there for a long time but what I have noticed is, how much new stuff there is all the time.

I think I would have no trouble at all to change my project to a pure drink/food tasting focus and not have one day where I have to do something twice. Kind of raises the question if we really need that many new products. I for one have never been at a supermarket and then proceeded to complain that they were missing something.

Ah you can probably guess where I am going with this. Last night I had an Arabian chickpea soup with a nutty focaccia and an iced green tea with ginger and some other stuff in the mix. All three I have never had before and I didn't really have to go out of my way to find these three new items.

All of it tasted really good.. even though the soup was not that appealing to look at..
I have plans for the next two days that don't involve food so you can look forward to those (if you don't enjoy the food part of the project that is). Also a big one coming up this Sunday!

Stay tuned. 

58/356: Mama Cuchara Gazpacho Cold Soup

I decided to give this cold soup thing a try. I walked past it a few times already and it always caught my attention. I really dig the design of the packaging. Also I thought having a cold soup would be just the right thing for the hot weather we are having at the moment.

Yeah well, I am not going to have it again. Really not my thing.

Keep my soups hot, thx.

54/356: Hot Sauce & Granola Bar

What an exciting day. I got a new type of granola bar and a new type of BBQ hot sauce.
Both had a practical reason. I ran out of the hot sauce that I got a few weeks back and loved so much. So I had to get a new one, naturally. This one is quite awesome as well! Gotta admit, I love my sauces. Recommended!

The nut/granola bar I got because I workout after I get home from work and need some energy for that. So what better than a granola bar stuffed with nuts. Mmmmm yummy....Well, it gives me energy, that's what it's supposed to do I guess. Chocolate would be better though. Everything is better covered in chocolate.

Bonne appetit.
