New Find~ Lorenz: Naturals (Sea Salt & Pepper)

While I was grocery shopping with my dad last Thursday (May 16, 2013) in SM Savemore, I felt so happy to find a product called Naturals from Lorenz. In the Phillippines, it's distributed by Goodway Int'l Trading Corp. in Quezon City. The flavor was Sea Salt and Pepper- made with all natural ingredients. Well, the truth is, the reason why I was excited with it was because of the quality and its price. Imported goods usually cost 80-100PHP. This one only costs less than 30PHP even if it was made in Germany~ Similarly priced as artificially flavored local snacks in the market. Very competitive, right? I munched on it with my dad while paying at the cashier, it tasted very good!

I'm sure that the people who buy non-artificially flavored snacks are as gleeful as I am!

I'm really pleased yet at the same time, not surprised. The truth is, as some of us may know, some companies have to raise their prices when they can actually give it at a cheaper price. FYI to anyone who's interested... When Lacoste first opened, they lost sales because they didn't have a high price. After they started aiming for a higher price range and market, people started buying. Now, they are quite popular, aren't they? The reality is, some people associate price with quality more than actually reading the package and discerning what they buy. I hope we can really be more capable of getting quality goods at the right prices. (Oh, if anyone has tips and tricks about great bargains, I'd love to know~)

I'm optimistic that a little more into the future, these organic and safer food products will be priced for the masses. I mean, it's not even supposed to be a privilege to eat safe food. It's supposed to be basic. Of course, businesses can't really drive the prices down, consumers also have to cooperate because they might close down if they're not earning enough. Hopefully, people can be more active in spreading something great because when there's more demand, prices usually go down, as economics would say...

Last note! If you know great items at the right price, feel free to post it here~ <3
