Munch On New Guinness-Infused Meatballs Now Available At Selected Cold Storage Outlets In SG

Finding new and exciting food items in the supermarket always fascinates me. When I found these new Guinness Infused Meatballs With Aged Cheddar (S$11.35) in Cold Storage, I simply had to try them.

Since they’re pre-cooked, all I had to do was to pop these meatballs into the microwave and voila, ready-to-eat meatballs.

The meatballs came out piping hot from the microwave, with a glistening dark brown outer crust. Unfortunately, they tasted rather dry and gamey when I bit into one.

Infused with a very smoky fragrance almost like lup cheong (smoked Chinese sausage), the meatballs had a malty aftertaste which I supposed was the “Guinness flavour”.

I was expecting the meatballs to have a cheesy centre like the picture on the packaging, but I was disappointed because there was no gooey cheese leaking out. In fact, there wasn’t much cheese at all!

I assume these meatballs would taste better with pasta sauce or with some gravy to make up for how dry they are.

Unfortunately, I would probably rather save the trouble and go down to IKEA for their juicy meatballs instead.
