Filipinos is a well-known brand of tasty biscuit snacks. These biscuits are shaped like a doughnut ring. They are made by a big company called Mondelez International.
You can find Filipinos biscuits in many countries. In places like France, Spain, Portugal, and the Nordic countries, they are sold under the name 'Artiach'. In the Netherlands, another company called Verkade makes and sells them. The name "Filipinos" has caused some discussion because it is the same name as the people from the Philippines.
Different Kinds of Filipinos Biscuits
Filipinos biscuits come in several yummy types. The most common one is a ring-shaped biscuit.
Ring-Shaped Biscuits
These biscuits are covered in different kinds of chocolate:
- Milk chocolate: These have a light-colored biscuit inside.
- Dark chocolate: These also have a light-colored biscuit.
- White chocolate: These are special because they have a dark brown biscuit inside.
You can often buy these ring-shaped biscuits in large rolls, perfect for sharing! The dark and white chocolate versions are also sold in smaller packs. These are called "Filipinos GoPack" or "Mini Filipinos." Each small pack usually has four biscuits.
Other Fun Shapes
Besides the rings, there are other interesting Filipinos snacks:
- Filipinos Agujeros: The word "Agujeros" means "holes" in Spanish. These are crispy, small balls. They are about the size of a doughnut hole. You can find them covered in either dark or white chocolate.
- Filipinos Bigsticks: These snacks are long and crispy, about 20 centimeters (8 inches) long. They are covered with puffed rice. You can get them with either dark or white chocolate coating.
