Filipino netizens couldn’t hide their disappointment after Taste Atlas placed three dishes in the Philippines in their list of ‘worst dishes in the world.’

On February 4, 2023, the online magazine released the controversial list that includes Filipino Spaghetti, Kinalas, and even the popular breakfast Hotsilog.

More Filipinos got affected by the inclusion of Filipino spaghetti because it’s one of the most popular dishes in the country.

There’s a big difference between Filipino spaghetti and traditional spaghetti.

Filipino spaghetti has a sweeter sauce compared to the traditional one.

It became part of many celebrations, especially birthday parties.

However, Filipinos questioned the methodology used by Taste Atlas to rank the said dishes and put them on the list of worst words.

Some even accused Taste Atlas of ‘Pinoy Baiting’ to gain the attention of the Filipinos and talk about their online magazine.

“I beg to disagree with those people who made the decision regarding Filipino dishes these people didn’t even consider how broad the culture we have had….I am a cook and having been exposed to international, European, Indian and Greek cuisine…, I can say that the taste not all but much of there food was much worst than our very own spaghetti!!!!” netizen Darwin Manalo said.

“Sus for sure nilagay nila yan kasi Filipino favorites yan. Gusto nila maging sikat sila kasi alam nila pag uusapan silang Pinoy so taas ung view etc nila. Tactic.” netizen Lexter Suarez commented.

“There is no such thing as worst food. Any food for that matter always has something to do with the taste or preference of the people who used to eat them for years. Nobody can judge the palate of anybody especially if the food was in existence for generations.” netizen Danilo Bagon Solis remarked.

Taste Atlas is founded by Croatian journalist and entrepreneur Matija Babic who loves discovering new food.

Netizens couldn’t hide their disappointment in a fast food restaurant customer who allegedly refilled his water bottle with gravy to take it home.

The photo taken in a branch of fast food restaurant KFC received negative reactions from the netizens, saying that the said customer was greedy and not thinking about the other customers.

KFC is known for its tasty and flowing gravy, but some people were taking advantage of it.

Some customers of the said fast food restaurant said that some branches already removed their refilling station or leaving it empty because of some people who were taking all the gravy.

If someone wanted to refill their gravy, they’re now required to ask the counter.

“Kaya karamihan sa mga refilling station ng ganyan ay tinatanggal na kasi marming mapang abuso at mapagsamantalang masisibang kagaya ng mga tao ganyan,” netizen Jordan Perez said.

“Dati sa Burger King unlimited din ang refill ng drinks.. pero dahil sa mga ganitong abusado na tao, tinanggal nila. Tapos mag rereklamo hindi umaasenso ang Pilipinas… Kasi marami saatin ang mapanlamang at nadadamay yung mga taong gumagawa ng tama… Some of the restaurants and food chains are being generous to us and tyring hard to give us what we paid for… Wag natin abusuhin..” another netizen said.

“Yan dahilan baket may bayad n extra gravy s Jollibee dami di ma kontento,” netizen Ryan Lozada remarked.

Until today, Toni Gonzaga is receiving criticisms from netizens and other celebrities that may start when she chose to support the candidacy of President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr.

Currently, some people were celebrating another loss to Gonzaga’s career as a television host after it was reported that her talk show on AllTV already held its last taping on February 3, 2023.

One of the people who posted about it was vlogger Jover Laurio who made a sarcastic remark about the ‘most powerful celebrity’ tag to Gonzaga.

“Flopped movie. Flopped concert. Flopped TV show. Powerful nga.” Laurio said.

Comedian Awra Briguela was one of the celebrities who liked the tweet from Laurio.

Aside from the tweet from Laurio, Awra also liked a tweet about Toni being called a ‘traitor’ for leaving ABS-CBN.

It can be recalled that many ABS-CBN fans criticized Gonzaga for leaving the network amid its franchise issue.

However, some Kapamilya fans also wanted Gonzaga to leave ABS-CBN because she’s a supporter of former President Rodrigo Duterte who were critical of the said network.

“Lahat na lang ng ginawa ni most powerful celebrity after traidurin ang ABS-CBN, semplang. Karma is real talaga.” netizen @princessfrance said.

It’s not known if there’s an issue between Awra and Toni or if the two even met personally.

Gonzaga was labeled as the most powerful celebrity by her husband Presidential Adviser for Creative Communications Paul Soriano.

Himas rehas ngayon ang isang 26-anyos na dalaga matapos nitong makapambiktima ng milyon milyong piso sa kanyang mga nakilala sa mga dating apps.

Sa ulat ng Taguig City Police, nahuli ang tinaguriang ‘Anna Delvey’ ng Pilipinas na si Mikaela Veronica Cabrera.

Si Anna Delvey ang sikat na con artist na nagpanggap na isang mayaman at tagapagmana ng isang bilyonaryo upang makapanloko ng mga totoong mayayaman sa Amerika.

Ayon sa mga naging biktima ni Cabrera ay ginagamit nito ang ilang dating apps at nagpanggap na isang mayamang negosyante upang makumbinsi ang kanyang mga nakikilalang kalalakihan na mag-invest sa kanyang kumpanya na ‘AUMA Fashion Styling’.

Pagkatapos niyang makuha ang pera ng kanyang mga naloloko ay hindi na ito magpapakita sa kanila kapag nag-umpisa na siyang singilin ng mga ito.

Nagbigay rin diumano ito ng mga cheke ngunit tumalbog rin ang mga ito.

Dahil dito ay napilitan na ang ilang biktima na magsampa ng kaso.

Aabot diumano sa P25-M ang nakulimbat ni Cabrera sa kanyang mga nakilala.

Ang isa sa mga biktima ay umabot ng P10-M ang naipamigay sa dalaga dahil nadala ito sa pagiging malambing nito.

Nagpapaawa rin diumano ito dahil sa nalulugi na daw ang kanyang negosyo.

“I ended up lending her more. I ended up borrowing from friends also. I pawned off my car,” ani Ian Tan, isa sa mag biktima.

Sa ngayon ay humaharap sa kasong paglabag sa Bounching Chek Law ang dalaga.

Nahuli sa kanyang tinitirhan na condominium unit si Cabrera.

Sa ulat ng When In Manila, sinabi ni Cabrera na itinatag niya ang AUMA para mabigyan ng pagkakataon ang mga tao na madiskubre ang kanilang sarili sa pamamagitan ng pananamit.

 “Auma is the combination of two people’s names who meant a lot to me. I guess you can say that Auma came from love and it’s my passion and love for style and fashion that will always sustain it.” aniya.

OFW disappointed by ungrateful friends and relatives: “Walang obligasyon ang isang balikbayan na bigyan kayo”

An Overseas Filipino Worker (OFW) publicly decried his ungrateful relatives and friends who were unsatisfied with the ‘pasalubong’ he was bringing back to the country.

In his Facebook post, Raymond Lopez an OFW based in Riyadh shared his thoughts on people complaining to him every time he returned to his homeland.

It can be recalled that it’s already part of the culture in the country that when an OFW comes home, people would already be expected that they’re going to receive a souvenir or ‘pasalubong’ from the said ‘balikbayan’.

However, according to Lopez he always receives complaints about his ‘pasalubong’ every time he comes home so he had no choice but to call out those people.

According to him, OFWs had no obligation to give gifts to their relatives and friends when they decided to go home.

He believed the ‘pasalubong’ culture discouraged some OFWs to go home who only wanted to be with their family after years of working away from them.

“Minsan, nakakadala talagang magbigay ng pasalubong kapag nagbabalik-bayan ka, bigyan mo man sila o hindi, meron at meron silang masasabi sa’yo, na kesyo “ito lang”, “nagbigay ka pa”, “kuripot naman”, “yan ba ‘yung abroad?”, “tatlong-taon sa abroad heto na ‘yun?”. Lopez said.

“Una po sa lahat, hindi po nagbabalik-bayan ang isang OFW para bigyan o pasalubungan kayong lahat, walang obligasyon ang isang OFW na bigyan kayo ng mga tsokolate, sabon, pabango at kung anu-ano pa! umuuwi ang isang OFW hindi para magregalo, mamigay o magpamudmod ng kung ano. Kundi, umuuwi sila para pansamantalang makapagpahinga, makapaglibang at makasama ang kani-kanilang pamila’t mahal sa buhay.” he added.

He also challenged the people he was referring to try working abroad.

“Sana, subukan n’yo ‘hong mag-abroad, para po maranasan n’yo rin ang mga sakripisyo naming, ‘yng mga pagtitipis, pangungulila at kalungkutang nararanasan ditto at ng mga kapwa-OFW naming sa buong mundo. Matuto po sana kayong magpasalamat o makuntento, dahil kahit papaano’y naabutan at naalala kayo nung tao.” he stated.

After becoming trending, Raymond thanked the netizens for appreciating his post about the hardship of OFWs.
