Late night snacks

I have this bad habit of eating snacks late in the evening and after dinner. Of course, these are mostly junk food that I eat while watching TV or a movie on DVD. I also like to munch while working late on some paper or report that I'm writing, usually to meet a deadline the following day. My favorite snacks would be barbecue or cheese flavored junk. As I have lived in Japan and Singapore for some time, I discovered some pretty good snack food there and miss these from time to time. Fortunately, I can satisfy that "longing" for these snacks through my travels.

Meiji chocolate milk is something I've enjoyed whenever I'm in Japan. Quite honestly, I think it tastes better than similar products currently available in the Philippines. Is it a sign of a deterioration in product quality for our local products or just my preference? Anyhow, I don't classify this as junk but more as something to help me sleep well at night.
Another Meiji product that I've mentioned in one of the old posts is this cheese flavored corn snack - Karu or Karl. Outside Japan, I can only find this snack in regular supermarkets in Bangkok. In other cities, you'll find this only at Japanese themed stores. Of course, it helps that the MBK mall has a Tokyu store so Japanese snacks are available there.
