Why is the western world going crazy over Avocados?

My Mom said avocados from Mexico taste better than Philippine avocados? Di bale, mas masarap naman Philippine Mango sa Mexican Mango. haha.

IMO, Philippine avocados and mangoes taste a lot better than those from Latin America.

Kaya nga Americans make Guacamoles out of their avocados,- they add all sorts of ingredients to compensate for its blandness in taste... Avocados natin,- lagyan mo lang ng asukal o condensed milk,- talo na!

Mangoes,- ours still is the sweetest I've tasted... Although, I don't buy mangoes that often when I'm there...

Parang oysters and mussels din nila,- bland,- pero dito sa Pilipinas, because of the water (pollution) in Manila Bay,- mas malinamnam ang ating oysters and mussels...

Totoo. Iyong mga dayuhan pagmatikim ng mangoes natin nasisiraan ng ulo sa sarap. Sa mango shake pa lang nga natin na aadik na sila.

perhaps... they think theirs is good.. because they haven't tasted ours, yet.
when i first got a taste of theirs, i read the label, several times. i couldn't believe they were passing this off as mango.
my opinion.

Re avocados: they originally came from Mexico, as did the sayote, came here via the Galleon Trade.

afaik, mangoes came from Asia. Must've hitched a boat ride over to Mexico via the same route.

It's a shame we don't have local production of Japalenos; tamang tama lang ang anghang, and it doesn't stick to your tongue

Not a fan of avocado though

"turbid" nga daw ang tubig sa source nila.
nung kalakasan ng rain days last week, our water pressure was as good and high as last year's.
two weeks before, water came at midnight, and left us at sun-up.
"haayyy...! back to deep well..."

The Spanish brought Philippine mango saplings to Mexico. I'm sure they also brought Filipinos over to supplement the local Native American labor.

As far as I'm concerned, Manila and champagne mangoes taste just like Philippine mangoes. Manila is simply a term Mexicans use for Philippine mangoes.



It makes sense to me. Parts of Mexico have the same tropical climate as the Philippines.

If I should have my Altis glass coated. But what will happen to all my detailing stuff. Sayang naman I want a really sparkling car and I think only glass coating can do that.

We were without water for almost 36 hours. Nagkakaroon saglit, pero mahina at madumi Buti nagka-tubig na kanina kasi hirap mag-absent ng Monday.

...so it was because of the rain? I don't get it haha

Hmm, maybe the rain water draining away from higher ground is kicking up sediment at the dams?

I don't get it, don't they have filters for all those impurities?

I recall a news article about a representative from these water companies boasting that their water is potable!

Why are people so addicted to travelling abroad? I even have relatives and friends who are abroad more than they are at home

Also, it seems like it is acceptable to spend money on travel but not on material objects. I am just glad I am not addicted to travel, otherwise I would be so broke right now. Basta rule ko, if it's not free, I am not going It's a very expensive "bisyo"
