MANILA,Philippines -- Filipinos are known to be food lovers and perhaps, they (we) may be considered as the most flexible ones when we talk about eating.

Colloquially, we call ourselves “cowboys” or down-to-earth— meaning, it’s, generally, not a bunch of big deal as to where, what or how we eat, especially in an informal get- together.  How we socialize is what is crucial.

You might remember how Former President Erap (Estrada), on several occasions, ate by hand with the masses.

MANILA, Philippines-- Truly, human life is full of paradoxes. For instance,often, when we treat a person well, the more he tends to abuse us. Have you noticed that people, in general, give more expensive gifts to the well-to-do than to the ones who need material gifts desperately?  Or sometimes we ask:  “why are bad people moneyed or lucky and the kind-hearted ones suffer a lot?”  Don’t think extensively.  It’s technically  like drinking a cup of hot coffee in summertime.
