Still No Contest Between McDonald’s And Jollibee In The Philippines

1 Comment

McDonald’s, ever the champion of affordability, has graciously unveiled a new $5 value meal in a heroic attempt to address customer complaints about rising prices.

This bundle of culinary delight includes small fries, a four-piece chicken nugget, a small soft drink, and the noble choice between a McDouble or a McChicken.

But will this gastronomic gift be extended to the Philippines to challenge Jollibee’s reign?

Given the current exchange rate, $5 translates to almost P300, dwarfing Jollibee’s P133 value meal. For P300, one can practically get double the chicken sandwich, fries and drink.

Thus, McDonald’s concedes that it cannot outmaneuver that fat, stupid, happy bee in its homeland.

While the Golden Arches may try to shine brighter, the formidable, joyful bee buzzes on, unchallenged, reminding us that sometimes, even giants have to bow to the simple, jubilant power of fried chicken.

Ang Alat Ni Ogie Diaz

Leave a comment

Ay, Ogie Diaz, ang ating resident na chicken critic! Aba, bakit kailangan pang mag-demand na bawasan ang alat ng KFC chicken? Parang big deal na ba ‘to, kuya? Kung sobrang alat para sa’yo, aba, lumipat ka na lang sa Jollibee o Max’s! Simpleng “saltlution” lang, di ba?

Parang bawat kibot eh kailangang ipost sa social media. Ano na, next week, may magrereklamo na ang sinigang masyadong maasim, o ang halo-halo sobrang tamis? Hala, baka pati adobo eh pag-usapan na dahil kulang sa toyo.

Baka naman hindi talaga alat ang problema, kundi paghabol sa likes at shares? Sana, next time, chicken na lang ang iprito mo, at hindi ang social media. Ang tunay na solusyon: hanapin ang pagkain na swak sa panlasa mo, at hayaan mo na ang iba sa alat ng buhay nila!

Pares Olympics In Quezon City On July 26!

Leave a comment

In a surprising twist, controversial personalities Diwata, Rosmar, and Rendon Labador have announced they will sponsor a national event in Quezon City on July 26, 2024, coinciding with the opening of the Paris Olympics.

This move comes after Rosmar and Labador were declared persona non grata in Coron, Palawan, following an incident involving a staff member of the mayor.

Dubbed the “Pares Olympics,” the event will take place at the Elliptical Circle and feature a national competition among carinderia owners to create the best pares recipe.

Contestants will vie for top honors in two categories: beef and pork pares.

Diwata, a close friend of Rosmar, who famously gifted him a house and lot, will lead the panel of esteemed judges.

So, pares enthusiasts, mark your calendars, and prepare your best recipes—this is one culinary showdown you won’t want to miss!
