Haw about it?

Aside from Giziku wafer sticks, another constant craving that I have is for Haw Flakes!

Yes, those little red discs that were part of our childhood back in Morato. I still remember buying Haw Flakes from Aling Ensa and Aling Leony's store (Mommy Gallegos didn't sell them in their sari-sari store), and we'd pretend that they're hosts. We'd all line up and the "priest" would give us one piece each.



More than 2 decades after, Haw Flakes is still very much here. The classic ones are the small ones and you can easily buy them in grocery stores. There are smaller and bigger ones at Aji Ichiban. And there's the Fat and Thin brand of giant Haw Flakes at SM's snack counters. That's the one that I'm into right now.

Unlike Giziku, I hope they never run out of Haw Flakes anytime soon.
