About Philippine taho

Taho is a beloved Filipino snack made of silken tofu, sweet arnibal syrup, and sago pearls. Originating from Chinese influence, it has become a staple street food in the Philippines, often served warm and purchased from vendors calling out, “Taho!” This protein-rich treat owes its creamy texture to the tofu, a plant-based source of protein and essential amino acids. The arnibal, made from caramelized sugar, provides its signature sweetness, though its high sugar content makes moderation important for those watching their sugar intake. Sago pearls, derived from starch, add chewy texture but offer limited nutritional value. Taho is a versatile option for vegetarians and is naturally gluten-free, making it appealing to various diets. As with many snacks, it provides a quick source of energy but should be enjoyed as part of a balanced diet.
