This is the e discovery of the year. It is expensive but worth it. It’s really crispy and the saltiness is just right. Good with fried rice and eggs or just by itself. I’ve ordered several.
nikkipbalmores
Crispy indeed. Quality- superb. Taste- delectable, no bitter taste (which is usually a sign that it is burnt). Best paired with Datu Puti Spicy tuba and newly cooked steamed rice. Buying again this item.

Hi, the second time I ordered krispy pusit tastes like it's been sitting for a while. Its not even krispy like the first time i order. I ordered 3 of krispy pusit, I gave 2 to my co workers but they said the same , ...tastes old also, not crispy anymore. I ordered also mangoes , was very good, only one was obviously bad. Please next time make it more fresh . Thank you.

Just unpacked my orders including the Kitch'n crispy pusit. So excited to try it, ready to eat.
Jenny
Repeat purchase and still absolutely addicted! I just received this package last night and it's already halfway gone - that's how good it is. It is so crunchy, perfectly salty, and savory. The best part is that it is fully cooked and ready to it, making the most convenient. Definitely will buy again.
Kathleen
Great with fried rice and vinegar.
