Discover the World Through Food

Disclosure: The owner of this blog was NOT financially compensated to write this review.  I was provided with the products mentioned  in exchange of my honest  opinion which may differ from yours.  


When I was younger, I  wasn't fond of trying  new foods  that I am not familiar with but as I got older, I am up for everything.  I am very surprised that I  discovered quite a few  products that ended up my favorite.   Discovering the world through food is  so much fun.  With Try the World, you will get to try a fun-filled box of goodies, one country at a time.   With my box, it is filled with Argentine Culture. 
I can tell that Try the World take pride of what they serve their customer because even the packaging is awesome. The box is doubled, the outer box has a unique design and the box where the goodies are enclosed  is pretty and very secure.  So let us see what's inside it.  Tadah!
One jar of  Doña Magdalena Dulce de Leche, it's a milky marmalade that is a national jam of Argentina.  This caramel topping  can be eaten  alone or you can drizzle it over your ice cream or you can even put this in your cake as a special treat.  This gourmet dulce de leche is made  with natural ingredients and with the best breeds of cattle .
My husband made some french toast for breakfast and I  added this dulce de leche to mine instead of using a syrup since I don't like mushy french toast.  I also added slices of bananas  to it.
My kids love snacking on olive and I love incorporating it in my coking but I have never tried   any green olive paste yet so this NQA Gourmet  green olive paste  would be perfect to  try it in a dish or in a snack.  I will update you once I have  used this already.  This is an Argentine take  on the traditional Southern French Tapenade.  This  would make a great  spread  for your  next party snacks.  I might just save this for my daughter's birthday party, I can serve some  delicious  canapes with this.
This Dulce de Membrillio reminds me of a delicious snack that my Mom used to prepare when we were kids.  This fruit spread has a hint of  vanilla and lemon, I tried it today with my toast and it's super delicious!  I am not fond of spread of  my toast but I am curious how this tastes like  so I cut a piece and  was surprised how good it was to be eaten with toast.   It's that good that I realized I have eaten the whole toast already without taking a photo.  Next time, I will though.  
These Chamana and Inti Zen would be a favorite for those who love  tea.  This pack has three different flavors of tea inside it.  
I went for a long jog this morning and I was dying for some drink so when I arrived, I prepared the Amazonia Mango which has mango, papaya, and peach.  It was quite  relaxing to sip while I was cooling down my body  in our back porch swing.  I have yet to try the abarazo and Don Juan so this tea would be my  go-to  relaxing drink this week after doing my cardio.  
I am from the tropics so this Inti Zen tea with mango, papaya, and peach reminds me of home. I put honey in it for a little bit of sweetness. This tea says "sweetness and passion, the forbidden blend" hmmm intriguing eh?
Another Inti Zen tea that I like, had this one this morning and I like it  more than the  one with tropical fruit.  Definitely had the feeling of "sensuality and mystery in a cup of tea".
This herbal tea  smells so good and it tasted good too.  
Yesterday, my husband was in the mood to  do some BBQ on the grill and it gave me an opportunity to try this Memories of Patagonio, Malbec Wine marinade.  I marinated a dozen of chicken wings and legs  for 1 hour before we went to church and when we came back, the flavor has already embedded in the chicken so  my husband fired up the grill and  did the grilling himself.
My husband was pleasantly surprised how good it turned put.  He was skeptical at first that I used this marinade instead of the  one that we use normally but glad I  used it, it made those chicken legs very flavorful!  This marinade is made  with succulent berries from Patagonia, honey from local pampas, and Malbec wine from Mendoza.  
I also tried the chimchurri with our  meal yesterday.  I used it as a dressing for my salad and it resembles  an Italian dressing. If you love parsley, garlic, oregano,  red pepper, and olive oil in a dressing, you will love this  chimuchurri!
Okay, I save the best for last.  After our family walk yesterday, I opened up  this Bake Love Koo butter cookies and we  ate it with our cucumber and mint milkshake.  It was  a fantastic treat after our bike riding, playing football, and long walk.
If you are wondering how to  a box like this, try to visit the link above and try them.  Just like any other box subscription, you will have to sign up and  try their introductory box.  Try the World offers free shipping and free returns, you can also cancel anytime.  You will experience different renowned chefs bring their world to your  door.  So are you ready to try the world?

That looks like a great box. I was a bit disappointed with the previous Try the World. I still haven't used most of what was in it. But, that is just how it is with food boxes. Can't be spot on all the time.
