We picked these up from a big pile on the shelf in the dollar store. Assorted cookies, apparantly produced by a Peruvian food company that promises food "Like in Italy".
Chocolate - Chocolate biscuit. A bit stale and soggy, but no more than any biscuit on a humid day at the cricket fields. Mild chocolate flavor develops as one chews the cookie.
Naranja - Jen's first impression: "Oh my god, it tastes like Trix!". If you like orange Trix or Fruit Loops, this is the cookie for you. Taste gets milder as you go along. Round cookie has imprint of orange crosssection. Very orangey smell.
Tuareg - Round, sandwich cookies. Pretty good. Vanilla cookies, coconut cream filling. Nate approves. Jen thinks they're like the "goat cum biscuits" she used to buy at our local Middle Eastern convenience store. (It's a long story, she says.)
