Eating Burmese Cornflakes with mr.hotsia in Myanmar
If you have followed mr.hotsia on frequent trips to Myanmar, you will know that this country is not only about beautiful pagodas or stunning natural scenery, but the food is equally impressive, especially “Burmese Cornflakes,” which I tried and had to share on my latest trip.
Burmese Cornflakes are one of the snacks I discovered during my travels. They are neither fancy nor expensive, but their taste and crispiness pleasantly surprised me. Especially when eaten with a local Burmese dipping sauce made with fragrant chili or a sweet and sour sauce, it’s incredibly delicious. Whether walking through a morning market or a walking street in Myanmar, you will see vendors selling these Burmese Cornflakes everywhere. It’s a local snack that everyone visiting must try.

Although I did not specify a particular province or city for these Burmese Cornflakes, if you want to truly experience the authentic atmosphere of diverse local Burmese food, I recommend visiting Bagan, which I have written about in my article.Food in Bagan, MyanmarHere, there are several morning markets filled with local food stalls, including plenty of Burmese Cornflakes snacks to enjoy.

If you travel to Kachin State, where I once visited the source of the Irrawaddy River,Mitginayou might also have the chance to find traditional Burmese Cornflakes made from natural local ingredients.
