Regarding those Haw Flakes:

I can’t remember the first time I had Haw Flakes (probably a childhood thing). Yesterday, while at a Vietnamese grocery store I saw dozens of Haw Flake packs sitting on the shelf. I hadn’t had them in awhile and forgot they existed (how sad)! I bought a couple, vaguely recalling how there was a time I was addicted to them. How could I forget how wonderful these things are?

Well, after eating a few “packets” I realized I still didn’t know what Haw was. So, I decided to look for it on the internet. I thought I’d find nothing. Instead I find this site and see pictures of the wrapper and yummy discs right before my eyes. And I found out what Haw actually was!

Anyway, I got a kick out of this site. Imagine being able to find out about Haw Flakes on the internet. Next time you’re in an Asian grocery store look for some Flute Cookies. My childhood wouldn’t have been complete without them. And if you love chocolate a box of Flute Cookies will do the trick.
