Calorie Confessions

For those who may be counting calories, according to Calorie Count, the granola square has 330 calories. While this might seem high for a snack, trust me when I say it's worth every calorie. The satisfaction derived from each bite far outweighs any fleeting concerns about the calorie count. Don't let the numbers deter you; the joy these granola squares bring is immeasurable.

A Love Story Unfolds in Taguig

My journey with these granola squares often leads me to Central Square, Bonifacio Global City, during my stays in Taguig. The first encounter was born out of a desire to lift my spirits on a gloomy day. I hoped for a pick-me-up similar to the joy ice cream provides, and Marks & Spencer's Granola Squares did not disappoint. Subsequent purchases became a regular ritual, offering a delightful companion during lonely work nights. What started as an occasional treat quickly turned into a habit—I lost count after the third or fourth purchase (LOL).
