Food review: Sainsbury's Chocolate Chip Cookies

This cookie taste great... its crunchy when u bite it and the sweetness of the chip is just nice! beside that, its very fresh too although its a cookie in a package form... i love this cookie but in malaysia did not sell :( (mum bought it in england. it cost less than 1 pound :D). haha finally i have more choice beside eating famous amos. its better than famous amos in the sense that its less oily. but famous amos definitely loss if the package cookie is being compared.

1. Farm chicken - Rear in the farm. Its big. And they inject it so that it grow faster. Soft meat. Cost around RM8-RM11.
2. "Cai yuan" chicken - Its a farm chicken that roam freely in the village. No injection and it grow slower. Meat softness medium - between farm and kg chicken. The farm chicken that are bought today is RM16
3. Kampung chicken - Different bred from cai yuan chicken, usually rear by malays, slow to grow. more expensive than cai yuan chicken, harder meat.
4. Black chicken - are more nutritious than normal white chicken.

1. Wash the herb and chicken. Cut chicken into tiny pcs
2. Boil hot water.
3. Put the herb and chicken into the pot then pour the boiling water into it.
4. Let it cook for about 4-5 hours then put 1 tablespoon salt.
