Arla Foods is an international dairy company owned by 13,400 farmers from Denmark, Sweden, the UK, Germany, Belgium, Luxemburg, and the Netherlands with its extensive portfolio of fresh, premium and high-quality dairy brands including Arla, Cocio, Lurpak, and Castello. It's also the world's largest manufacturer and producer of organic dairy products. Established back in the 1880's by a cooperative of dairy farmers in Denmark and Sweden, earnings were equally split among the farmers laying the foundation for the world's biggest organic dairy producer with its wide range of fresh products available in more than 140 countries. With over a hundred years of experience, you can taste the difference with their All-Organic Full Cream Milk, including Chocolate and Strawberry-flavored Fresh Cow's Milk. Loaded with calcium, protein, vitamins, and minerals, the flavors are fresh and clean with absolutely no preservatives or refined sugars, just pure milk goodness.

The Pop-Up Arla Goodness Station offers three tasty and healthy meal sets, each with a sandwich, soup and salad for a complete and satisfying meal. The Pop-Up Arla Goodness Station's Set C (P 350) includes a savory Corned Beef Sandwich paired with Chili con Carne and Caprese Salad, a fresh and healthier alternative to the usual meal options. The Chili con Carne is perfectly spiced with just the right level of heat, made with tender beef and flavorful beans in a rich sauce topped with a generous topping of Arla Cheddar Cheese, while the Caprese Salad recreates classic Italian flavors with garden-fresh local greens, vine-ripened tomatoes, and pesto-infused balsamic cream with melt-in-your-mouth Arla Havarti Cheese. It's a tasty trio with the Chili con Carne and Caprese Salad complementing the Corned Beef Sandwich.

True to its made-from-scratch approach, the Corned Beef Sandwich is made from premium beef brisket paired with the nutty Arla Emmental Cheese and sharp horseradish cream for that flavorful punch. A bite of the soft yet crisp panini releases the mildly briny notes of the premium fork-tender corned beef followed by the sharpness of the cheddar cheese capped by the bold bite of the horseradish cream. And no, you won't find that rich and savory corned beef flavor from the canned variety, everything is prepared fresh at the Pop-Up Arla Goodness Station. 

Chef Deo Tayag draws inspiration from the classic childhood favorite with his nostalgic Set C (P 300), consisting of an All-Natural PB & J, fresh Garden Salad with Seasonal Fruit, and comforting Brown Rice with Caramelized Mushroom. The fresh and crisp greens, drizzled with a honey vinaigrette, delivers a tart sweetness, while the roasted nuts add yet another layer of flavor and texture perfectly finished by the creamy Arla Apetina Feta in Oil. The Brown Rice with Caramelized Mushroom has rich, nutty flavors in a thick broth, topped with Arla's indulgent whipping cream. The grainy texture of the homestyle soup, along with the salad, pair well with the All-Natural PB & J for another winning set at the Pop-Up Arla Goodness Station.

The All-Natural PB & J includes a sweet filling of fresh bananas, crunchy peanut butter, and tart homemade jam topped with a generous serving of Arla Cheesy Spread for layers of complex flavors. Sweet, nutty, tart, and creamy, Arla takes the familiar PB & J to a whole new level.

You can also go for a traditional grilled cheese sandwich with the Pop-Up Arla Goodness Station's Set C (P 250) with its Three Cheese Panini, refreshing Greek Salad, and rustic Roasted Tomato Soup combo. The Roasted Tomato Soup is made from locally sourced plump tomatoes, delicately roasted for that distinct smoky hint, then pureed to a creamy consistency for that heartwarming bowl of soup topped with Arla Cheesy Spread to complete the dish. The Greek Salad offers the vibrant favors of the Mediterranean with a medley of fresh vegetables and Arla Apetina Feta Cheese in Oil.

The Three Cheese Panini is a blend of Arla Mozzarella, Arla Gouda, and Arla Cheddar Cheese slices on toasted Ciabatta with Arla Butter. The three cheeses combine in an indulgent and velvety smooth blend, releasing its creamy richness with every bite. Dip your Three-Cheese Panini in the Roasted Tomato Soup for even more flavor. Grilled cheese? Make that the Three Cheese Panini at the Pop-Up Arla Goodness Station. You just can't go wrong with the freshest and finest milk, cheese, and butter. You can also Mix & Match and create your own set with a soup, salad and sandwich from the three sets for only P 350.

Pair your healthy meal at the Pop-Up Arla Goodness Station with a refreshing Cocio Classic Chocolate Milk (P 80) or the Cocio Dark Chocolate Milk (P 80). You can enjoy even more milk goodness with Arla Milk Goodness Chocolate Milk (P 35) and Arla Milk Goodness Strawberry Milk (P 35).
