Philippines was hard done by the US that's why the US-Ph past connection is almost never brought to the surface. They left Ph hanging similar to what they did to Afghanistan. There's a video floating around KZbin which discusses how the Mexican-Philippines-Hawaii treatment of the US unfolded in the early 1900s. Hawaii obviously, became a US State but the other two ended up as their own sovereign nations.

[@waylee7121]

I don't think many people realize this but both Filipino and Mexican cuisine are heavily influenced by Spanish cuisine since they were both once colonies of the said country. Like, we have lechon and mexico has lechon too as well as what we call chicharon, which is fried dried pork rinds. That being said, it's i think one of the main and important factors why filipino and mexican food work together perfectly

[@paolakoh3472]

Wow i'm from the place in Mexico where every Sunday we have Lechon and Cochinita as breakfast. Now I want to try the Philippine version >w

[@ThingsWeSaidToday]

not only that but mexico and the Philippines actually had a very active economic and cultural trade during the period of spanish colonialism; the governing seat of the philippines was literally in mexico city, not spain, for quite a while. Asian ingredients are used in mexico partially because of this legacy (like chile de arbol, which is descended from asian birds eye chilis), and the Philippines uses a lot of mexican ingredients, like annatto, because of this.

[@waylee7121]

@@ThingsWeSaidToday I knew that the Philippines was being run by a governor-general instead of the king itself but I never knew that the said person would be in mexico. thats a cool fact! i also knew about trading since it was really a common factor in colonialism but didn't know abt the specific goods.

[@waylee7121]

@@paolakoh3472 We also have our own version of Menudo too! Ours is more of a stew than a soup but its a cool fact

[@godlesslippillow]

I think it’s also fascinating to acknowledge it’s not just Spanish influencing the food with what they brought but it’s what the colonized people do when influenced. I know so many desserts in Spanish colonized places that use up a lot of egg yolks because the Spain’s missionaries would want the egg whites to mix the mortar for their Mission buildings and churches and you can’t let good egg yolk eating go to waste.

[@justherefor]

The Philippines is a melting pot before the Spaniards, Japanese, or the Americans colonized us. The country is the center of trade back then.

[@thwb4661]

Actually, the Philippines being a melting pot is not really about "colonialism" or us being subjected by Western Empires, but more on "trade" between civilizations, including Spain. Colonialism was just a small part of what makes us a "melting pot"" of cultures and cuisines. The Philippines being the center of Southeast Asia, has been a trading stop for both India, China, and Southeast Asian kingdoms at that time so the fusion was already there before the Spanish have arrived. Also, the waves of Chinese migrants in the 19th and 20th centuries also contributed to the more newer "Chinese" influence in our cuisine, such as the "siopao" and the "siomai" dimsum dishes that got Filipinized over time.

[@LotsOfLancelot]

No. Their food has always been something unique. They were colonized by the Spanish, but they take inspiration from a lot of things.

[@rimurutempest4945]

@@justherefor Yeah, and we had our own letters and words and even government, and traded a lot with the Chinese, Malays, Arabs, and other surrounding countries. The Philippines were also really rich with gold before we got colonized, since according to Magellan’s notes there were so much gold used for the decorations and houses.

[@sherryillk]

Nope, definitely not a unique feeling. Sometimes I think the first trauma inflicted on a child of immigrants is being born and raised in a country whose culture is different from their family. No matter how adjusted you are, you end up going through these self identity issues at some point at your life. I appreciate my parents for trying to provide a better future for their children but at the same time, I resent them for not realizing the toll it would take on their children being raised with a culture that is so different from the one they are living in.

[@kiki-yz9pd]

Honestly !! I've always felt that I needed to be more grateful that I was privileged enough to be born in a safe town with accessible education (here in the US..) But I've always wondered what it'd be like if I was raised back in Myanmar. It's hard to connect with both sides sometimes, it causes kind of an existential crisis early on.

Lol yeah. I could tell he was like "Oh right we have to do this weird sponsor thing. Quick say something nice"

[@RusticVisuals]

Yeah theyre pretty heavy handed with the fanta sponsor

[@famshars2389]

They’re exploiting famously nice Filipino fans’ support by emphasizing Fanta as a perfect match. The US screwed over Mexico (skyrocketing obesity and diabetes over ghastly trade deals) + other countries with soda and now they’re capitalizing on the Philippines.

[@nuthnmuchu]

@@famshars2389 This isn't their first video with a Fanta sponsorship so it's not just aimed towards Filipinos that are watching this. Might I suggest adding a Sponsor Block for YT to add to Google Chrome so you can skip most of the sponsoring?

[@paimonmilktea3814]

It's kind of perfect that this is sponsored by Fanta as Coca-Cola actually doesn't produce Fanta in the Philippines because in 2007, Coke bought and distributes Royal Tru (a local orange soda brand) because it outsold both Fanta and Mirinda by a lot

[@solmckogane8713]

I personally have Filipino parentage and love try guys, couldn't stop smiling watching this video. It was almost surreal to see my childhood foods featuring on a try guys video! Great content as usual

[@luzelenaserrano1236]

Being a Mexican person living in Mexico, I've never had access to foods from around the world. We don't really do diversity here, unfortunately, at least not like in the US. So it was baffling to see just HOW similar our cuisine is to Filipino cuisine. I DEFINITELY have to try it if I ever get the chance! All my love

[@olleheyb]

Have you ever heard of the Manila-Acapulco Galleon Trade? If not, I suggest you look it up. During Spanish colonial times, there was cultural exchange and influence happening directly between Mexico and the Philippines, broadening what similarities we have beyond the shared experience of Spanish colonization. Also, apparently many of the Filipino men on board jumped ship and settled in Mexico, so there are Mexicans from that area with Filipino lineage. I am Filipino American from California, and I always love learning about the similarities between Filipino culture and Mexican culture with my Mexican friends. We are very much primas/primos/mga pinsan!

[@krisg5078]

You can try eating filipino food by cooking with filipino recipes. I suggest Sisig and Adobo. or a breakfast like Tapsilog.

[@ephiiquuxsrochester2503]

Hehe the similarities does not end at mechado, adobo, tsokolate, and even banana leaf based desserts. Culture, religion, vicks vapor rub, our mothers throwing slippers like shurikens and ofcourse us being family oriented literally makes us relatives 😂

[@wegotmonkey444]

Much love. We are kindred spirits and practically cousins hahah

[@melissasalazarsivilla5288]

It really is crazy how similar they are.

[@Dat_Gay_Gremlin]

It warms my heart seeing that lady give them Fanta in a bag. Before my grandma immigrated to the states, she and her family used to sell soda in a bag to recycle the cans for money. Now, she sews on occasion and parties way too much lol

[@Needless_thoughts]

I'm from Honduras and we do this too. Made my heart warm. Pulperias are like mini Market and they sell soda like this unless you ask for the bottle

[@munginosal2135]

Just a tip, don't eat there immediately after settling but when you're really homesick and miss the taste because they won't taste "authentic" when you're still used to our dishes like they taste filipino but really weird. They'll taste great and nostalgic once you get used to LA's food

[@SelwynClydeAlojipan]

Once you dig deeper into Filipino foods, learn how the different sweet, sour, salty, savory, spicy and other condiments and dips are used to contrast the initial flavor of the dish so you have taste counterpoints and combinations. Ask the the staff of a Filipino restaurant what condiment or dipping sauce goes well with the dish you ordered. Next, learn how to (1) eat with your hand (usually just one hand) while using the other hand for your drink, serving spoons, and plate; (2) how to use a paired spoon and fork to spear and slice food chunks or to load grains and mushy food on to your spoon. No need for a knife.
