Chinese market in Rio de Janeiro!

There are many shops and grocery stores, in Rio de Janeiro, specialize industrialized Eastern foods. Korea stuff, Japan, China, Taiwan and other. I was at one of these establishments and bought a bunch of crap to put here on the Blog TudoVemDaChina.

The first one is the line of sorbets Melona, of South Korea. Had previously purchased before, but now risked taking the exotic melon ice cream.

With less exotic flavors like Strawberry, Mango and banana, the Melona is already appearing in several bakeries. It's huge because it's cheap. I don't really like the melon, but the others are good.

Now for the lesser-known products. This, for example, is the Chanypo: a grape sorbet made in Taiwan.

He has a strong taste and appearance of the carioca bags (or cold). I don't believe that it will succeed in Brazil.

Now let's get back to Chinese oddities, specialties of this blog. This product below caught my attention because it is a juice with bits of gelatin manufactured in China. Although grape, The GiGi does not have the typical reddish coloring, as in previous ice cream.

Honestly, I thought it was kind of gross. It has to taste good, but the bits of gelatin make the juice a little weird. The fact of being white with solid pieces leave a bad appearance.

Another “delight” I found in the Chinese market are these onion biscuits. I know you are because onion is written on the label in Portuguese mandatory for import, because everything in the bag of the product is written in Chinese.

What seems standard on all Chinese products is extremely strong and seasoned flavor, many times too spicy. Just put in a cookie to realize the pepper and onion.

Now in cookies I had a nice surprise. I bought the Koala's March Strawberry and really liked it. Made in China.

Each cookie has a strawberry filling and has painted a different bear.

Nice and good, but it's also expensive, It costs $ 6.00.

The Chinese really like pepper, because many of their appetizers are pretty spicy. This is a spicy peanut.

Although the default is to have a lot of pepper, this peanut is not that strong. Cool photos of what appears to be the farm that produces the product. Or maybe it's not that, everything is in Chinese I couldn't understand anything!

Also bought a number of noodle, so different that do a text just for them! Too bad you can not leave a link to buy the products, the way is to look for any importer or supermarket with imported. Haven't found anything that's worth much it in terms gastrológicos, but at least it's quite curious to know what our fellow Chinese eat when our cell phones!
