F-Cup Cookie — Day #1

Hey peeps!
So, as you all have been waiting for... *drum-roll*
YES! Finally I've started my first day of consuming the product!

But first, here's some descriptions of the F-Cup Cookies:

1. The front view of the box,

Front View

-note that the product is in Japanese.
-there's a gold sticker at the top left corner (authentication mark).
-30 pcs of cookies (bottom right).
-still wrapped in plastic.

2. Side view of the box,

Side View

-note that the expiry date is 30th Sept 2014 (about a year from the date I bought).
-the description is still in Japanese.
-still wrapped in plastic.

3. Another view of the box (bottom),

Bottom View

-note that there's a sticker (translation) of the product, along with the nutrition information (Mandarin/English).

-still wrapped in plastic.

4. Removing the plastic,

Box Unwrapped

-note that the description sticker (white) comes off together with the plastic.

-the gold sticker (top left) stays with the box.

5. Opening the box,

Box Opened

-note that there is a piece of paper (in Japanese) in the box, though I'm not sure what it is for.

6. Examining the Cookies,

30 pcs of Cookies

-note that the cookie wrapper is pink and white with the words "F·cup cookies" on it.

-there are 15 bars on the left and 15 bars on the right.

7. The size of the Cookies,

Cookie + Makeup Cotton Pad

-note that it is quite small.

-can see the relative size under the comparison of the standard makeup cotton pad.

8. The first bite,

Soy Milk Flavour

-note that the flavour of the Cookies that I've bought is Soy Milk, so it explains the beige-brown colour.

-the taste (at first bite) is a little out of my expectation (well, I expect it to be tasty).

-it is actually quite tasty after a while; tastes like unsweetened cookie.

-texture is the same as some soft cookies that may leave crumbs around if you're not careful in eating.

-can say it almost "melts" in your mouth once you start chewing.

Overall,

Price: US$77 for 3 boxes (from Sasa.com) including postage (under a limited promotion).

Packaging: Secure; trustworthy.

Shipment: Quite fast (from Hong Kong); within 7 working days, but stuck at custom.

Taste: Acceptable; quite tasty in fact.

Evaluation: US$0.85 per piece (90 in total), that could last me for about 2 months.

Comment: Not some cheap stuff. Hope it works.

➜ My Way of Consuming the Cookies:
-in between my breakfast (as in halfway of having my bread).
-a bottle of 1.5 litre of water standing by at all times (to keep myself hydrated).
-after eating the cookies, I drink a small cup of milk (though I think I'm lactose intolerant).
-I heard one should consume 2 bars a day for optimal results; I'll go by alternate (one day 2 bars the other day 1 bar), but I'll start having 2 bars for the first 5 days (now).

➜ So, how do I feel?
Hmmm.. I heard one has to consume plenty of water as I saw one testimony before that she said she was "parched" the next morning.
Well, I'm feeling okay now, so far.
No weird/thirsty feelings yet (except that sometimes I may undergo diarrhoea due to the milk).

>>So, my next post would most probably be talking about how I feel the following day (or so). My second bar would probably be later tonight, after dinner before bed.

Stay tune! :)
