Tang Pulpy: A Tangy and Puply Chinese New Year

Last year, I celebrated Chinese New Year at Binondo with five other bloggers, Kuya Dom, Doc Gelo, Chyng, Cher, and Josh.  That was really a lucky event for me because after the Binondo Food Wok, I was inspired by these great bloggers to make this blog, Chic & Cheaps.


And now, I am still lucky to celebrate the Chinese New Year at SM Mall of Asia with Tang!

 
The biggest Chinese New Year celebration in the Philippines ushered in the Year of the Metal Rabbit, and treated Filipinos to a big surprise: a fruity experience from the new Tang Pulpy.

As one of the world’s most colorful festivities, Chinese New Year celebrations are known for their unique rituals and ceremonies, of which dragon dances and pyrotechnic displays are the most popular. These are said to repel evil spirits and attract luck and prosperity. Best of all the Chinese New Year heralds a fruitful new beginning.

What better way to welcome a new year than by presenting a new fruity and pulpy drinking experience? Last February 2, 2011 Kraft Foods Philippines celebrated Chinese New Year with the introduction of Tang Pulpy. Three grand fireworks displays were staged at the SM North EDSA, SM Megamall and SM Mall of Asia, the latter being the venue for the grand Tang Pulpy unveiling.

Before the event, Tang Pulpy geared up the Metro for this very fruity surprise. Three giant mangoes were spotted at the three big shopping malls and generated much curiosity among Manile

Tang Pulpy is the country’s first powdered juice beverage with natural pulpy bits from real mangoes and oranges. It provides an authentic fruit experience for mommy juice drinkers, also enjoyable for kids and whole family. It comes in two of Filipinos’ favorite juice flavors: Tang Pulpy Mango and Tang Pulpy Orange. Pinoys can be guaranteed that Tang Pulpy will be accessible as it is available in affordable 1 liter sachet packs. Moms can make everyday a spectacular one with Tang Pulpy.

“As a leader in the powdered juice beverage category, Tang lives by the Kraft Foods vision to make everyday delicious for Filipinos,” Mark De Joya, Tang Brand Manager for New Product Development shared. “This is why we constantly innovate. Now, we present a more sophisticated juice drink that combines real fruit taste with the flavourful experience of pulp in a powdered beverage format. It’s an innovation that really caters to Pinoy moms and their families.”

Kraft Foods Philippines hopes that Filipinos will delight in the distinctive taste experience of Tang Pulpy. With its pulpy bits creating a flavor explosion in their taste buds, Tang Pulpy can surely make everyday even more delicious, spectacular, and all-around pulp-sarap for the family.

Miracle Whip's Miracle Machine: Whipping Up 12 Miracles 12 Days Before Christmas

Do you have unused books, toys, clothes, BP apparatus, digital thermometers, old bicycle to share?  Here at Miracle Machine, every single donation counts.


Before I attend this event, I was really looking for a not-so-well-known foundation or organization that I will be helping this Christmas, and luckily I only not found one, but 12 organizations!!!


Miracle Machine Facebook application helped me.   How?  Read on, guys, and you too might help pitch in something to make miracles happen this Christmas.


Miracle Whip is all about making good things happen. But this time, Kraft has decided to whip up miracles outside of the kitchen with Miracle Machine.

Miracle Machine is a social network application and its objective is quite simple: to get people and their friends and their friends’ friends working together to make miracles happen for the less privileged people. Think Facebook but instead of status updates and comments, you get opportunities to help.

Last year, when Ondoy mercilessly devastated the country, most of us turned to Facebook as a channel for mobilizing efforts to help thousands of people during those trying times. Miracle Machine aims to do the same, to become a centralized online hub where people from all walks of life can come together and combine their resources to extend a helping hand to those who need it the most.

For the first phase, the Miracle Machine wishes to whip up 12 miracles in 12 days through Facebook in time for the Christmas season.

If we get everyone to pitch in, we can show that as more people become part of Miracle Machine, we get to make more and more amazing things happen!
