6 Insanely Cute Food Ideas Even Picky Eaters Can’t Say ‘No’ To
Treats up north
The best Asian food isn’t in Asia, it’s in British Columbia. If you’re headed to a weekend getaway up north, make a pit stop at T&T, a Canadian supermarket chain that specializes in Asian food. Find tons of ready-to-go options in the deli section, including these insanely adorable buns. Choose from red bean paste strawberry buns, coconut monkey buns, happy pig custard buns or cutie buns, a multi-pack that come in bee, penguin, duck and Doremon designs.
Sometimes cute things don’t actually taste good — looking at you, fondant — but these buns were surprisingly yummy and not too sweet. Warm them in the microwave under a damp paper towel, or better yet, steam them in the rice cooker.
To buy: $5.99–$7.99 (Canadian) for a pack of eight buns at T&T. Locations in Vancouver, Richmond and Burnaby, B.C. (For tasty Asian treats closer to home, try always-fun Uwajimaya stores in Seattle, Bellevue and Renton.)
