Cinnabon Mixed Berry Minibon; Bake it and Enjoy it

  

Today, I got to try my baking skill (well, actually it’s more of following instructions, but still , pinagpawisan ako doing it).  When I received an invitation as to learn how Cinnabon does their famous Cinnabon products, I was just so excited and send a definite yes to the invitation.  Luckily, the branch was so near to my residence that it just took me 10 minutes to get there. Well, I guess I was so excited that  I actually arrived 30 minutes earlier than the time specified. 

As I entered the Podium branch of Cinnabon, I was welcome with the aroma of the cinnamons and it makes my tummy grumble.  To make this tummy quite a bit, I opt to eat some cinnabon sticks.

“10 Kumainments” pushed in 17 regions to combat unhealthy diet, lifestyle

After its successful launch in Metro Manila, the National Nutrition Council (NNC) pushes its“10 Kumainments” campaign to all 17 regions of the country, through the local government units (LGUs) as its drivers.

The campaign, which provides “the recommended guide” for Filipinos to obtain a healthy diet by following simple guidelines, has been translated into local dialects, including Cebuano and Ivatan. The NNC-ARMM(Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao) has even made a transliteration of the nutritional guidelines in Arabic and called it the Nutritional Guidelines for Muslim Filipinos, which cites teachings in the Qur’an, showing support for each of the guidelines.

The 10 Kumainments was launched last 23 October 2014 by the National Nutrition Council and has been widely publicized through well-placed TV and radio commercials in leading radio and television networks and local radio stations nationwide. Regional launch events were led by the NNC regional offices in key cities nationwide.
