COMMUNITY PANTRY: Egg-Snatching Lady Has A Good Heart After All

MAPAGBIGAY, Quezon City (The Adobo Chronicles, Quezon City Bureau) – The unidentified woman who snatched all the trays of fresh eggs from a community pantry in Quezon City has a good heart after all.

The woman returned to the community pantry today with dozens of plastic packs of freshly-made leche flan. She said her intention in taking the fresh eggs was to bake the ever popular sweet dessert.

In a zoom call with The Adobo Chronicles, the woman said the two trays of eggs she took from the community pantry were not enough to make all the leche flan she brought back. “Nag-abono pa ako,” (I had to come up with more), she said. She declined to say where she got the additional eggs.

Both Heydarian and Baraan are known to be anti-Duterte.

The idea behind the community pantry was for anyone to take anything from the makeshift cart according to need, and for others to donate items according to their capacity.

Now, the community pantry has caught the entire Philippines like wildfire, and variations have also been seen in many places.

One community pantry offers free liquor, and another offers free cash. These have been quite popular among both takers and givers.

Only in the Philippines…
