    Streetfood (1)

    April 13, 2022 on the Philippines ⋅ ☁️ 27 °C

    In the Philippines, there's food everywhere. Small streetfood stalls huddled next to each other, selling all kinds of food. If you're a carnivore, you will find plenty of options. The Filipinos love their meat.

    If you're a vegetarian, you won't starve but you should be ok with a very imbalanced and one-sided diet (and very unhealthy in my point of view). 😅 One of the vegetarian food options you can find are bananas: raw bananas, fried bananas, bananas put into something and then fried, of course with a lot of oil, which makes the healthy banana less healthy but more yummy. 😋
    In El Nido we found "Crunchy Banana" (fried banana with crunchy stuff) and "Banana Burrito" a banana put into a sweet tortilla and the fried). The price was 0,20€ per piece, which is super cheap even for Filipino prices.

    If you're a vegan, you'll probably need to supplement a lot of nutrients or cook yourself, as you'll only find rice, corn and a few raw fruits.
