Celebrating Trentastic Years of Taters: A Journey of Flavor, Fun, and Innovation
Thursday, August 15, 2024
As Taters Entertainment Snacks marks its 30th anniversary, the brand stands as a testament to resilience, innovation, and a deep understanding of what Filipinos love. From its modest beginnings, Taters has evolved into a beloved household name, catering to a wide array of snacking preferences and lifestyle needs.
This milestone is more than just a celebration of longevity; it’s a reflection of Taters' continuous pursuit of excellence and its ability to adapt to the ever-changing demands of the market.
A Legacy of Flavor and Fun
When Taters first entered the market 30 years ago, the snacking landscape in the Philippines was vastly different. Popcorn and chips were the core offerings, enjoyed mainly by moviegoers and mall shoppers. However, as the years passed, the brand began to recognize the shifting tastes and lifestyles of its customers, prompting Taters to expand its menu and reach.
Today, Taters is much more than just a popcorn and chips brand. The product line-up has grown to include a wide range of offerings that cater to different cravings and occasions. Whether it’s a savory hotdog, a mouth-watering sandwich, crispy chicken, or savory fish, Taters ensures that every customer finds something to enjoy. This evolution from a niche cinema snack provider to a versatile and widely accessible food brand is the key to Taters success story.
Evolving with the Times: Taters in the Post-Pandemic Era
The COVID-19 pandemic brought unprecedented challenges to businesses worldwide, and Taters was no exception. However, instead of merely weathering the storm, Taters used this period as an opportunity to innovate and diversify its reach. The brand embraced various formats to meet the unique needs of its customers, wherever they may be.
Cinema-goers: Despite the challenges faced by the cinema industry during the pandemic, Taters remained a staple for movie lovers. With safety protocols in place, Taters continued to offer its classic snacks, ensuring that the magic of the movies was accompanied by the familiar crunch and flavor of their favorite treats.
Sports and leisure customers: As more people sought out entertainment in safe, controlled environments, Taters expanded its presence in game parks and sports centers. These venues became hotspots for those looking to combine physical activity with tasty snacks, and Taters was there to meet that demand.
Binge-watchers: With more people staying home and streaming content, Taters made its products available through community outlets and delivery services. Whether it’s a movie marathon or a TV show binge, Taters snacks became the perfect companion for at-home entertainment.
Amusement center patrons and mall shoppers: Taters continued to thrive in malls and amusement centers, adapting to new safety guidelines while still providing the fun, flavorful experience that customers expect.
Commuters: For those on the go, Taters offered quick, convenient, and satisfying options. Whether it’s a sandwich or a bag of chips, commuters could count on Taters to fuel their journeys.
Party-goers and celebrations: As events and gatherings began to make a comeback, Taters reasserted itself as a must-have at parties and celebrations. With a wide range of products, the brand ensured that hosts could cater to all their guests' tastes.
The Trentastic Game On
In celebration of its 30th year, Taters is proud to introduce the Trentastic Game On- Sport + Snack Tournament—a fitting tribute to the brand’s long-standing commitment to excellence. Drawing inspiration from the Olympics, Trentastic Game On is designed to highlight the best in competitive gaming, whether it’s baskeball, billiards, table tennis or more.
This tournament is more than just a competition; it’s about the spirit of perseverance, skill, and the relentless pursuit of being the best—values that Taters has upheld for three decades.
Trentastic Champs: Celebrating Individual Achievements
Alongside the Trentastic Game On - Sport + Snack Tournament, Taters is also spotlighting individual achievements with the Trentastic Champs promo. This exciting initiative allows participants to showcase their skills in specific games and be rewarded with delicious prizes.
The Bow Blitz Champ: In this archery-themed challenge, players who score 30 points inside the yellow ring in a single game will receive a FREE Minor Superpop. This promo is all about precision and rewarding those who hit their mark.
The Turkey Striker Champ: For bowling enthusiasts, this challenge offers a FREE Classic Chunky Hotdog to any player who strikes a Turkey (three consecutive strikes). It’s a tasty way to celebrate consistency and skill.
Both challenges emphasize the spirit of competition and excellence, key themes that have driven Taters' success over the past 30 years.
A Commitment to Excellence: The Trentastic Bundles
Central to Taters' enduring success is its unwavering commitment to quality and innovation. This commitment is exemplified in the introduction of the Trentastic Bundles—a series of specially curated snack packages designed to complement a variety of leisure activities. These bundles offer customers discounted sport and snack combinations, perfect for bowling nights, karaoke sessions, darts games, or simply enjoying a day at the game park.
Through these value-packed bundles, Taters not only enhances the overall experience for its customers but also reinforces its reputation as a brand that consistently delivers excellence in both product and service.

While Taters’ 30th anniversary is a celebration of its own achievements, it also marks the beginning of an exciting collaboration with SM Gamepark. This partnership brings together two brands that share a common goal: to create memorable, fun-filled experiences for their customers.

Getting lip fillers can be an exciting way to enhance your appearance and boost your confidence. However, there are a few essential things to keep in mind before you take the plunge. Here's a handy list to help you understand what to expect for natural-looking results.
1. Lip fillers can look and feel natural
Many people worry that their lips will not look natural after a lip injection and that others will notice they've had something "done." Achieving natural-looking lips means they should look natural not only when your face is at rest but also when you smile and talk.
Restylane Kysse is made with Optimal Balance Technology™ (OBT™), an innovative crosslinked hyaluronic acid (HA) gel created for precise, natural-looking results. Dr. Mary Kevinne Foz, also known as ‘Dr. Gorj’, of A1 Medical Aesthetics noted that it helps her patients achieve a subtle enhancement yet provides a high level of patient satisfaction.
In a “kissability study” conducted with Restylane Kysse, 100% of participants were satisfied with their lip filler, and 96% agreed that their lips feel and look natural. Even their partners found them more attractive post-treatment.
Caption: Dr. Foz, more endearingly called Dr. Gorj by her patients, is the only WHO-accredited doctor for Transgender Health in the Philippines.
Dr. Foz adds, “For me, the main advantage of Restylane Kysse is that you keep people guessing. The only people who should be able to tell if you’ve had a procedure is yourself and your romantic partner when they kiss you.”
2. Lip fillers require upkeep
Dr. Foz mentions that the number one question from patients is about the longevity of lip fillers. For Restylane Kysse, the effects are clinically proven to last up to 1 year, but results may vary based on your body chemistry and the amount of product used. It’s essential to discuss with your injector the best treatment plan tailored to your needs.

Restylane Kysse is a part of the Galderma Aesthetics product line, known for personalized treatment plans to ensure patients receive the best care possible.
3. Lip fillers are for everyone
Dr. Foz is the only Filipino doctor accredited by the World Professional Association for Transgender Health. She emphasizes the importance of choosing the right kind of fillers and avoiding unregulated products. Educating patients about safe and effective options like Restylane Kysse is crucial, especially for those exploring their gender identity and seeking aesthetic enhancements.
“Sometimes, patients will get treatments from clinics that are not FDA-approved. Or they will buy fillers online that are not regulated and ask these clinics to inject it for them,” Dr. Foz says. “So, as a Doctor to trans-women patients, I have to educate them regarding the best, safest options available to them.”
4. Contoured lips are in
Current beauty trends favor lined lips topped with gloss, and Restylane Kysse can help achieve that contoured look. Whether aiming for a well-defined Cupid’s bow, symmetrical pout, or enhanced lip color and texture, Restylane Kysse can help you achieve your aesthetic goals.

“My patients really like Restylane Kysse because of the contoured look it adds to the lips,” Dr. Foz says. “As Filipinos, our lips tend to be thinner. So, they want more plumpness and a more defined shape, with angles, to make the experience of putting on lipstick more fun.”
5. Don’t take risks
For lasting effects and an enjoyable lip filler journey, Dr. Foz recommends a few precautions. Stop smoking to avoid introducing harmful chemicals through injection openings.
Dr. Foz explains, “Restylane Kysse for me is not just ideal; I think it’s the perfect lip filler because I trust the science behind it. They get the lips they want, and still look natural. I do request patients to stop smoking after getting their lip filler injection. Because of course, the small openings that happen when you inject, I don't want the tar, the nicotine, the chemicals to go inside. Avoid infections.”

Choosing the right filler and following these guidelines can help ensure a positive experience with lip enhancements. Restylane Kysse offers a reliable and natural-looking option to achieve your desired look.
