As the Easter season approaches, food lovers rejoice as the feast brings with it a number of treats and this year, Mannarinu’s viral snack the Figollini are back!
The bite-sized almond treats went viral last year for repurposing the iconic Maltese Figolla in snack form, making them perfect for a grab-and-go nibble or sharing with others.
That is, unless you don’t plan on devouring the whole pack yourself (not judging).

Hundreds of people gathered in Yangon, Myanmar to protest the country’s military coup, criticising their military dictator and calling for democracy.
Protests against the military coup arose despite Telenor, one of Myanmar’s biggest telecommunication providers, being ordered to shut down access to social media ‘for the sake of stability’.
The crowds are calling for the release of their elected leader Aung San Suu Kyi after he, with many others, was detained by the army and is currently under house arrest.
