This is the Jolibee bee. I can't see how it wouldn't be deleted, and I also doubt it's important enough to upload locally and face possible legal action. Any disagreement? Ikan Kekek (talk) 22:45, 14 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

Meat prices

[edit]

@Asamboi, in this edit, I added that vegetable-based dishes (even with fish sauce and shrimp paste by default) tend to be less expensive than predominantly meat- or seafood-based ones, and it got reverted later. You'd expect meat and seafood prices to be similar to those of vegetables in the Philippines due to their centrality in the cuisine, but with a few ubiquitous exceptions like chicken (I don't know the truth; correct me if ), the opposite is surprisingly true similar to other meat-heavy places. I would strongly suggest that someone eat out at some restaurants in the Philippines, compare the prices of meat- or seafood-based dishes to those of vegetable-based ones, and post their findings here.

Asamboi, do not take this ping as retaliatory, but because this thread concerns one of your edits. Faster than Thunder (talk) 00:32, 28 June 2025 (UTC)Reply

Section "Dietary restrictions"

[edit]

"Due to the extensive ..." should be changed to:

Due to the extensive use of fish and shrimp pastes like bagoong, severe seafood allergies, especially to shrimp or crustaceans, are basically incompatible with Filipino food. Even dishes like barbecued chicken may use fish/shrimp paste in the marinade. If cross-contamination is a concern, you're best off eating only at purely vegetarian places or buying and cooking your own food.

"Peanuts (mani)" should be changed to:

Peanuts (mani) and tree nuts, most notably the pili nut, are widely used as ingredients and as snack foods, including in bread, pastries, and crackers.
