It's heartwarming to witness someone from a different culture embrace and explore our beloved Filipino grocery store with such enthusiasm and curiosity. I must say, our grocery stores are a treasure trove of unique and flavorful delights, and seeing a foreigner genuinely appreciate our diverse selection of snacks, sauces, and condiments is a true testament to the richness of our cuisine. To the foreigner in the video: thank you for taking the time to immerse yourself in our culture! Your reactions were priceless, and it was heartening to see you try out our traditional delicacies with an open mind and a smile on your face. To my fellow Filipinos: let's take this as a reminder of the beauty and uniqueness of our own culture. It's easy to overlook the wonders of our local stores amidst the hustle of everyday life. Let's embrace our heritage and cherish the simple joys we find in our grocery aisles! Remember, no matter where we come from, food has the power to connect us all, and it's incredible to see how a foreigner's appreciation for our cuisine can bridge the gap between cultures. Mabuhay ang kultura natin! (Long live our culture!) 🇵🇭❤
Your store is very impressive. If that’s the way all the stores are there that’s fantastic our best stores don’t look that nice they might have real pretty ceilings and lights, but they’re usually cluttered in the aisles and they don’t have any kind of stock like you showing in the video, I would love to come and shop in your store anytime
On the subject of breakfast, have you tried the tocino, longganisa, and tapa from the frozen meat section? Just fry and pair with a simple garlic fried rice and egg-You got yourself a home made silog meal.
Dingdong in the Philippines is also a name for the boy. 😊 There is no bad meaning here..just a plain name,that's all. 😄 Banana catsup is usually sweet while tomato catsup is in a bit sour side.
My cooking hack for onions is using onion powder instead of real ones. Not a fan of banana ketchup, I like soy sauce and kalamansi with a bit of chili as my dipping sauce most of the time. I would recommend trying Argentina or Purefoods corned beef. Purefoods is more expensive but definitely more delish. Enjoy & stay safe!😊
Grocery shopping seems like fun with you two! 😀🫰🏻 It was great learning what “ding dong” means in Thailand and in the UK. For snacks, the Oshi brand has prawn crackers and other kinds of cracklings. Non-locals often find the prawn crackers pungent smelling, but I guess we’re just used to it, so we don’t mind it as much. It tastes of seafood, like a mix of squid and prawns. Banana ketchup / catsup was a response to the needy times of WW2 when tomatoes became scarce. I guess, it became a staple since then. I think there are smaller portions being sold in sachets supermarkets. OR just ask for some in a carinderia / restaurant next time you eat out 😀. Locals like to eat fried meat with it. Max’s Restaurant is known to serve their fried chicken with banana ketchup. I personally prefer tomato ketchup though. I think Magic Sarap is a variation of MSG, and is used as such. My favorite brand of instant noodles is Lucky Me. I often go for original version of their pancit canton and add homemade chili-garlic oil when I eat them. I recommend you try chicken afritada in a carinderia before you go for the tinned variety. It’s a tomato-based dish of chicken, potatoes, carros, and bell peppers. My favorite local brand of canned meat is Delimondo and Purefoods comes in close second. I think Delimondo has the best tasting local corned beef. We also call corned beef as carne norte. For cured meats, I suggest trying tocino, longganisa, and tapa from Pampanga’s Best. FYI, they’re sweeter than cured meats from other countries, and we often eat them a dipping of spicy vinegar or some pickled veg. (For half a kilo) Thaw the package first, transfer contents to a frying pan, mix in about 2 tablespoons of cooking oil, and set on medium high flame. Water will be drawn out on the first few minutes and flip the meat once in a while. Lower flame when water is drying out and oil is starting to come out. Sear the meat to your liking, and then it’s ready to serve. With rice and fried egg, that’s a common breakfast fare here. I also like having spanish style sardines or bangus with rice for a quick meal. These are canned or bottled, but I prefer the bottled ones. Speaking of breakfast, have you tried pan de sal (bread) yet? And coconut jam? Pan de sal is often available in a corner bakery, just ask them what time it is available. You can find the coconut jam in the supermarket. It’s made with reduced coconut cream with muscovado sugar. I also suggest trying local sweets, cookies and biscuits. Macapuno candies (coconut), yema candies (condensed milk), rosquillos, and otap.
Wow. Thank you so much for all of this information. Much appreciated. Yes, we have tried pan de sal and both like it, especially with sausage and bacon. I haven't tried cococunt jam but it sounds good as I usually like most things with coconut. I am going to google yema candies, rosquillos and otap now. You're wonderful. Thanks again. ;-)
I just found this channel and just love it ! Thank so much guys for these useful videos. We are going to Philippines in December so we are watching all your videos ! Hugs !
@@AlwaysonaJourney oh yes they are ! We have watched almost all the videos from Philippines. We are flying from Belgium . Once again thank you for these great videos . Great job guys !
SM - thrilled to go there, but it doesn't have a large discount like Waltermart. A lot of American brands Waltermart - same as Walmart (Europe or US) Robinson - copied by SM, sometimes escalator doesn't work Shopwise - it's good, cause it's neat to go groceries Puregold - A mall of Ph District - y'all need to pack big money for that, only rich people go there I only go there for Korean products/korean beverages All home - It's amazing to watch on Cinema there and browsing too cause it's neat Coffee project~
You can make vinegar from bananas too. Banana ketchup is made purely of bananas and not added with tomatoes. It's is great for marinade and braising sauce.
As someone here said, Banana Ketchup is a Pinoy invention (Pinoy is the colloquial word for Filipino) during WWII i think, brought about by a shortage of tomatoes. We use it in our spaghetti too, hence the sweetness. And it is also added in our marinade for our barbecues. :) About the exorbitant prices of onions here, an onion cartel was actually behind it. I believe our government will be filing a case against them.
Did you know that in 2022 Tanduay Rum was the world #1 selling rum? #2 was Bacardi. Jerry's info on the onions was correct. They even banned flight attendants from bringing them in because they were making a business out of it (at Philippine Airlines flight attendants).
@AlwaysonaJourney I think what happened was customs tried to confiscate (competition?l and the attendants grabbed, threw on the floor and stompped with their feet ('if I can't have them you can't either' - attitude). This spectacle made news and the importation by crew became banned.
You can actually see banana catchup in most of Filipinos household. Personally I don't like catchup that is sour tho most Fili likes vinegar or sour taste but catchup is an exemption, I am not saying that all Filo but me personally and maybe some of Filos as well. Dingdong is sometimes used as a name or a nickname or a doorbell sound. 😂 It is normal to find different brands or canned products for you to choose what brand would fit your budget and most Filos had their own fav brand.
Thank you. I've tried the banana catchup now and I think it's ok but still prefer tomato ketchup. With Ding Dong, I liked them so much, i chipped one of my teeth lol.
What all you pick is delicious..we often use that as pulutan and chaser..😁😜😂🤣where Westerner use tomato as catsup..but here in the Philippines we use banana as catsup..😝🤣
Yes banana catsup has been our favorite catsup because it is much cheaper than tomato. What you can use with your tomato catsup can also do with banana.
Glad You Upload A New Videos Today , Guys Awesome Thanks For Sharing, I Love All That Kind Of Ramen Noodles Specially The Vermicelli One So Good ✌️👌👍👍👍👍👍💕❤️👍🇺🇸❤️
Hi Andrew and Jerry you can use banana ketchup to dip your fried chicken or fried hotdogs or fried eggs . Or fried pork chops . Basically anything fried .
Andrew and Jerry you2 are becoming Pinoys 😂 Be careful of those snacks…msg 😂 I 💚some turon for my snack. I used to buy Tang and my fav is the melon and mango. I had to stop when I started my IF, too much sugar 😂. Flipinos love that red hotdogs! Growing up in the States I like the Costco’s hotdog. Idk I gotta have my Heinz ketchup! I don’t like sweet spaghetti so I use the original sauce. What about bread? I used to buy the Gardenia cinnamon with raisins ❤️ Since the pandemic I started baking banana and sourdough breads. Once in a blue moon I would drink a glass of wine 🍷 I’m curious about that Boracay one though. Those big onions 🧅 are always expensive! I prefer the small red onions. It’s cheaper. This video is great with good content 💙 Take care always and thank you for being here in the 🇵🇭
Thanks as always I think.youre taste and way of thinking is similar to mine. I try to IF once a week and I'm paying attention to my sugar intake at the moment. I love sweet food but my belly on the other hand doesn't:-)
Personally, I prefer tomato ketchup BUT the only dish I would pair with a banana ketchup is the dish called “tortang talong”. Eggplant dish which was recently said to be the best egg dish out there. It’s quite easy to make, there is a YT video from Lumpia Queen and Andy Cooks should you want to try making it. Purefoods TJ hotdog is the brand of choice. It’s a bit premium compared to other brands. In the same vein, their Purefoods corned beef also is the best one out there. Please don’t try those canned prepared meals; adobo, afritada, etc. They are basically struggle meals. Not that tasty and not well made. You should try instant pancit canton as it is a popular food here. Lucky me is the popular brand.
I still prefer tomato ketchup but if making Filipino bbq then you use banana ketchup. (Originally, also for Filipino spaghetti but now we have ready to mix sauces.) I'm not a big hotdog fan but Puregoods tender juicy i think is the best tasting one or maybe just because it's what we grew up with. Wow, you really know a lot of snacks already. I like VCut (Bbq), Fishda and those vegetarian chicharons (Marty's or Mang Juan). If you see polvoron, get the HOP brand. They're tasty but sweet. It's a milk snack.
Many people seem to prefer tomato ketchup. I didn't realize it was only made form banana.Yes, the sauces are a little too sweet for me. I love snacks but need to be careful as I am at an age where it's so much easier to gain weight.
We use banana ketchup just you would use tomato ketchup. It's banana-based, there's no tomatoes in it. It's sweeter than regular ketchup. The hot dogs are more popular food items for children, it lures them to the breakfast table to eat before leaving for school 😋
Banana ketchup is a thing in the philippines very normal hehehe and the hotdogs is the partner of banana ketchup. Magic sarap is you have to mixe it while cooning its like salt, pepper etc..
Banana ketsup is purely ketsup made of banana and not mixed wit any tomato. It is sweeter than a tomato ketsup. Hotdogs are very popular in the Philippines. Best during brekky and also on sticks; fried or grilled. Enjoyed your vlogs / videos in the Philippines. Keep it up. Cheers.
@@AlwaysonaJourneyMaria Orosa is the inventor of the banan ketchup. She's a food scientist who graduated in a prestigious university in America. She made the ketchup in the 30's because of how high the price of tomatoes and also the shortage of the tomatoes. Sadly she died young trying to help her fellow Filipinos in the war.
Thank you. We'd love to upload three times a week aswell but unfortunately we both have other commitments with our teaching jobs. It's not easy to find more free time. ;-)
haha dingdong in ph has 3 meaning. 1st, its a name. 2nd the sound of a doorbell... 3rd a penis ok 4th, the snack 😂😂 for a dipping sauce. i suggest mang tomas liver sauce. it goes well almost with every meal.
There is nothing weird about banana ketsup. What is weirs is your chocolate with mint, rootbeer but its not beer, cheese taste like paper its not cheese and many more. Now thats funny. Wahahahahehehehehehe
"Carne norte" is actually the less popular term for 'corned beef'. You will usually hear that term in rural villages or towns. In the cities, the old folks still use the term for corned beef.
By the way it was the common term by early Filipinos, because they were used to be imported from USA (North America), or in Spanish, "America del Norte". Carne Norte literally means "northern meat", or "meat from the north".
@@AlwaysonaJourney When I Used To Live in Germany When my Husband Was In US AIRFORCE, The German LOVE 💕 CORNBEEF AND CABBAGE LIKE THE IRISH ☘️ 😅😂😅 THATS WHY I LOVE ❤️ CORN BEEF, TRY THE BRAND FROM ARGENTINA and NEW ZEALAND THE BESt PURE CHUNKY LEAN MEAT , I Don’t KNOW IF THEY CARRY THAT BRAND IN THE Philippines…. ✌️👍👍👍👌👍👋💕
The government is actually quite mum on the reason the Onions are expensive. Philippines has been experiencing many typhoons since time immemorial. The Department of Agriculture is under the management of the present President. Go figure.
these are just regular consumables. don't make such big deals out of these items like they're out of this world. look for something else to do for content
For you they may be regular consumables if you're a Filipno. For us they are all items we have never seen before. That said, thank you for sharing your opinion. :-)

Buy the red oinions instead of the white ones
I've never seen red onions here so far. I actually prefer them.
@@AlwaysonaJourney oh sorry ..i mean shallots...there expensive too but for me you can save because there tiny thats why you can cook more meals..

It depends where people are from and what they are familiar with. I'd never heard of banana ketchup before so to me it sounded unusual.
@@AlwaysonaJourney wahahahahahaha yeah I never heard of you so your unusual. Wahahahahehehehehe
"Carne norte" is actually the less popular term for 'corned beef'. You will usually hear that term in rural villages or towns. In the cities, the old folks still use the term for corned beef.
By the way it was the common term by early Filipinos, because they were used to be imported from USA (North America), or in Spanish, "America del Norte". Carne Norte literally means "northern meat", or "meat from the north".
I Love 💕 The Purefoods Corn Beef The Best , That’s The Brand I Always Buy Here in the USA And The Argentina, And New Zealand….

The government is actually quite mum on the reason the Onions are expensive. Philippines has been experiencing many typhoons since time immemorial. The Department of Agriculture is under the management of the present President. Go figure.
I've heard a few theories.
Been drinking tang in US over 50 yrs
Ah really? Thanks for letting us know.
I ❤ tender juicy na hotdog
I am not a huge fan but Jerry is.
these are just regular consumables. don't make such big deals out of these items like they're out of this world. look for something else to do for content
For you they may be regular consumables if you're a Filipno. For us they are all items we have never seen before. That said, thank you for sharing your opinion. :-)
you've never seen a ketchup, noodles, powdered juice, meat loaf,hot dogs, sausage? lmfao
Hey, I've got an idea. How about you use you're expertise and give us some suggestions. That would take the same amount of effort on your part.
@@AlwaysonaJourney I was just asking a question lol
supermarket exploration is always exciting! I remember the first time I found pigs heads. 🫨. but hey, when in rome....
Been so long for me
I agree. It's fun. Pigs heads? Wow. Where did you find them?
@@AlwaysonaJourney I found the pigs head at S&R in BGC!
..Banana ketchup is more popular here in the philippines than the tomato ketchup, because its more sweeter which the kids are more fond of..
Ahhh , so kids usually prefer the banana catsup instead. Interesting.
