AliBaba Paaper Bites – Something Nice… Something Different! I pretty much lived on these chips when I was at Camps Bay High School, and, I am sure those of you that went there can agree with me on this… Breaks were just not the same without them andย a one hitter. R2 a pop, with a buttered roll from the tuck-shop and you are sorted! I remember having two personal favourites; being the Malaysian Chutney and the Secret Flavour.
I saw a tweet the other day from one of my posse, @lolabythesea about these scrumptious, unhealthy, deep fried Eastern treats! They have recently taken on a new look too and I have included a picture below which visually represents the new packaging, logo and brand identity! The Alibaba brand is today an icon to consumers of Halaal and Eastern Ethnic foods in the Western Cape and their goal is to extend that status nationally and internationally!
This instantly sparked memories of banter in the tuck-shop, where we spent most of our time, if we weren’t hiding in the bathroom eating chip rolls with white sauce. Yes, there were scavengers at Camps Bay too, probably more barbaric ones than schools found in the heart of the Middle East! So as I do, I organised with Lorien that she gets us a few boxes to run a comp with. We thought it would be nice if you guys could too experience that warm, fuzzy nostalgia that these beautiful creations gave us! Oh and don’t worry we have shared a box of 48 packets already, so please someone take these off my hands!!! LOL
