Are you bored with the snacks you’ve been eating while staying at home? 

For busy people, spending both our working and leisure time at home means that we only get access to snacks that are either easy-to-make or just too simple. After all, who has time to whip up a complicated snack when there are chores, schoolwork, or deadlines to finish?

You might also be missing restaurant food. Because not all of us have culinary skills, it’s difficult to get a hold of delicious, quality food that can satisfy cravings. Months into our current situation, we now know that ordering out all of our meals isn’t a viable option either.

Well, put your worries away. Tiger Crackers got you covered! 

From well-known snack maker Mondelez Philippines, the crispy, melt-in-your-mouth Tiger Crackers come in 3 delicious flavors: uniquely Filipino flavors lifted from locally-loved snacks, Leche Flan and Ensaymada, as well as the crowd-favorite Plain. A pack of 3 crackers only has 120 calories – perfect for anybody trying to stay fit and healthy.

With triangular lines on the crackers that make it easier to cut, Tiger Crackers are also highly versatile and can be used to make various snacks.
