WASHINGTON, D.C. (The Adobo Chronicles) – The White House today apologized for a major blunder during a luncheon it hosted for members of the media. It was a pre-State of the Union Address gathering to provide legitimate journalists and TV news anchors with advance highlights of President Obama’s speech.
“We sincerely apologize. We meant to invite only people, not animals, and certainly not foxes, to the lunch,” White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest said.
Two foxes were seated next to NBC’s Brian Williams, complete with place cards.
ROME, Italy (The Adobo Chronicles) – Pope Francis’ long flight from Manila to Rome was a great opportunity for journalists to ask the pontiff questions ranging from his impressions of Sri Lanka and the Philippines to the expected Vatican encyclical on climate change to the Pope’s scheduled visit to the U.S. this fall.
The Adobo Chronicles chose to ask the Pope a question that has been nagging many people who have closely watched Francis’ travels abroad.
It is common knowledge by now that Pope Francis prefers to carry his own bag — that Italian leather bag often seen in photos and videos taken of the pontiff, especially during his recent visit to the Philippines.
We asked the Pope what was in his leather bag. He revealed it to us on the condition that we keep it confidential. So we will honor our commitment.
But we’d like to ask our readers: What do you think is in the Pope’s leather bag?

CHICAGO, Illinois (The Adobo Chronicles) – Faced with sagging sales and stiff competition from rival fastfood chains like In-N-Out Burger and Jollibee, McDonald’s announced today that it will be introducing a new menu item this spring. Here comes McSushi!
The fastfood giant is capitalizing on the growing popularity of this Japanese delicacy — raw fish slices served on top of a tiny heap of vinegar-flavored rice. Sushi can be made with different kinds of raw fish, but McDonald’s chose the fatty salmon version.
McSushi will come in pairs, shaped like the McDonald’s famous ‘M’ arch, a brilliant marketing scheme that will remind consumers of the source of their healthy snack. The item will be priced at $2.99. Soy sauce is free but wasabi is extra at fifty cents per packet.
Consumers are already lovin’ it!
McSushi will be available in the U.S. beginning March 1. It will be introduced in Europe and Asia next summer.
