HACCP-CERTIFIED MARK IN PROCESSED FOOD PRODUCTS
By: feng on: Sep 13,2008 In: food labelsHACCP-certified. We often see this mark in food labels of processed food. Me, I spotted the HACCP mark twice in our groceries today– in the plastic package of Gardenia Bread and the vacuum plastic pack of Purefoods TJ Hotdogs for my Little Boy. But what does it mean for us Mommy consumers?

HALAL SEAL IN MY SON’S HONEY STARS CEREAL
By: feng on: Sep 3,2008 In: food labelsMy son have become a very picky eater lately. And though he’s still within the normal weight range for his age, I can’t help but worry he’s not getting balanced nutrition. That is why when he failed to eat well during major meals, I always insist he eats a healthy snack in between meals.
A healthy [...]
GOYA CHOCOLATES AND DISCLOSURE OF FOOD ALLERGENS
By: feng on: Aug 21,2008 In: food labelsThe photos above are our latest chocolate indulgence at home. Goya Black & White Chocolates.

About this blog
Welcome to The Meticulous Mommy! My name is Feng, trying hard to be a Meticulous Mommy. :) This is my second home next to my personal blog----From Dawn Till Dusk. My experiences to trying as many products and services as far as my Little Boy Nico is concerned was the main reason for creating this Blog. As a Mom, I only want the best for my son. And it pays to be meticulous enough to know most aspects, if not all, or the littlest of details of anything I provide my son, before taking the plunge of spending. It helps that the rich experiences I encountered and learned from the organization I've been working for over 10 years, allowed me to be more conscious on what I purchase and vigilant enough to fight for my rights as a consumer. ;) More about me?

- THE HUSH-HUSH, RUSH-RUSH SOFA SET PURCHASE October 9, 2008My Sis, SIL and I, together with our kids made a short trip to the Mall last Saturday afternoon. It was kinda hush-hush, rush-rush because Mom asked us to go and look for a sofa set for her still bare Lanai cum mini garden. She’s at a panic mode for so many weeks now and [...]
- I WANT MY YAYA October 7, 2008I Want My Yaya is a mini story book I bought for Nico during our short trip to the Mall last Saturday.
