just received a group message at my email.
A few friends told me it wasn't worth takingseriously, but there's this blog entry of an American named Pamiewho went with her friends to a Jollibee in Eagle Rock,Los Angeles, and went out disgusted with the food.
Quotables:Holy shit, y'all. Jollibee."It's like Wendy's took all the goo that comes out oftheir burgers when they're done cooking them, pressedthat down into a mold, froze it in a patty shape, and exported it to the Philippines, where they put it between some bread, put pink sauce on it and sent itback here.
"To each his/her own, right? But not always. Her entryinfuriated a lot of Filipinos and non-Americans and spammed her email and forums with a barrage of responses, ranging from the disgruntled, to thesarcastic, to the violently indignant. Someone went sofar as to say, "Jollibee f*cked your mom and ninemonths later you were born.
"So yes, not a lot of people found her Jollibee "adventure" amusing. Neither did I, so inspite of myfriends, I wrote her my response. I didn't feel itwasn't just about Jollibee's food and/or service. Denigrating a food's culture (even their fastfood) is tantamount to insulting the people. I mean that's justme.
Anyway, everything can be found somewhere here.

==============================================
so i went to shai's blog.
haha. thanks to shai...tama ka shai...TAMA!!
here's my rants:
**i don't think that all Filipinos think, speak, or behave just like the guy mentioned something Jollibee f*ck*ng ur mom. Yes, honestly speaking, there are "those" who use such languages. Sana walang bastusan. Nakaka-insulto kaya ung cnabi nia, hindi lng sa Jollibee corp, pati na rin sa mga pilipino.
**bout the food, i know everyone has their own "taste", and i respect all your views. But, i don't think those nasty comments the guy had said is not proper, and i think the problem was on him the way he expressed his views, also to his friends.
**alam ko, magugulat talaga sila sa kakainin nila sa Jollibee. Malamang, hindi cla sanay sa ganoong pagkain, but isnt that proper to insult the fastfood in a nasty way?? I bet they know every country's culture, and they must consider and respect those. Pakainin ko kaya sila ng uod gusto nio??
**"It's like Wendy's took all the goo that comes out of their burgers when they're done cooking them, pressed that down into a mold, froze it in a patty shape, and exported it to the Philippines, where they put it between some bread, put pink sauce on it and sent it back here."...ampotek...kakain na nga lng sa jollibee iinsultuhin pa ang pagkain. After all the services which the establishment had offered to them, treated them hospitably and offered them food, tapos ganun lng????shut up ok!!
**Nobody forced them you eat their right??I think it's because of all your curiosities. Kaya itinayo jan sa US ang Jollibee ay dahil iyon ay para sa mga Filipinos na na-hohome-sick na at naghahanap ng filipino food...bkit??san parte ng us makakahanap ng palabok aber??
**ang t^ng@ talaga nun...ung pink sauce na sinasabi nila..it's simply combination of ketchup and mayo...yuck ka jan??
err....i mean, everyone has their own opinions and views on things and everyone respect it. Sana lng ala ng "fuck you" ok??nakakabastos eh...tama wag na lng kau bumalik sa Jollibee...
haha..bad trip cla..nabasa ko nga ung blog entry nung girl eh. If they don't want to be scared of the food, then don't try experimenting on going on fastfood, especially to filipino fastfood chain, like the Jollibee.
wee....
