Century CORNED tuna

A new player in the "canned tuna" industry surfaced weeks ago, utilizing a popular loveteam as endorsers and introduced a "new" way of preparing and serving tuna out of the can. I was so sure then that my favorite tuna brand, obvious Century Tuna, would come out with their own version. And I was right; barely a few days after, they had their own tv ad telling the country they also got one - corned!

With "delicious tuna flakes seasoned with cured and smoked flavours plus onions and garlic bits", this is one way to enjoy "corned beef' in a healthy way. Upon opening a can today, I smelled it and it really did smell like corned beef. And it also tasted like one when it first touched my tongue - lol. Eventually the it's taste became more tuna, the more I had it. This can be enjoyed directly out of the can with onions or sauteed just like it's beef counterpart.

With this kind of tuna product, I think even kids can enjoy them for they taste like their favorite corned beef. You can just even say that they used sa light colored beef that's why it's colored this way. The variant I had today was the plain one and i enjoyed it very much, how much more if it's the chili one. Now I'm looking forward for tomorrow!

A tinapay called MONAY

Monay is a well-known Filipino bread and based on Wikipedia , it's the Filipinized version of the Spanish bread pan de monja or bread of the monks . I had to laugh it out upon reading that entry from Wiki. Coming from Western Visayas in which monay is more than a bread based on local dialect, it's hard not to. And here's why... A post from PinoyExchange forum "I had this funny experience a few years back when I was in Aklan. I bought a homemade peanut butter and I was craving to eat it so I immediately ran to a nearby bakery with a friend to buy some bread. I was hoping to buy pandesal but I saw this large "monay" and I said to the tindera " Miss magkano ang hot monay mo ?" My friend suddenly laughed and so did the tindera. I repeated it saying " Yan monay mo nga miss kung magkano and bibilhin ko ." They again laughed and I was left wondering why. Then on our way back with my "hot monay" I asked my friend why did they laughed...

It is also one of the most missed native dishes as kadyos and the souring ingredient, batwan , are hard to find when outside of the Ilonggo region.
