    Each time I watch Filipino around the Lechon Table it reminds me of this clip from the Croods cartoon Movie :roflmao: ROFLMAO!!



    I now ask the sellers (before I go to view the Pig) if they;
    A: Feed it Pigrolac
    B: Feed it only organic feed (The WINNER)

    If they are very poor, normally it means they can only afford to feed the Pig organic feed such as old fruits, vegetables and vines etc. For me I think this is the tastier meat to buy, has less fat and is not pumped full of antibiotics and other hormone drugs, so win-win for your health. :thumbsup:

    I have mentioned to my wife I would rather buy a gun to humanely kill the Pig, one bullet to the brain instead of cutting its throat and letting it die a slow agonizing death, she and family were aghast! NO WAY they all cried, they would NEVER eat a Pig that has been shot! :facepalm:

    Last night I viewed a video of a Pig being killed on Facebook, the guy took a LARGE Islamic style Sword and in one swoop took the head clean off of the very large Pig! I was amazed at the outcry here over how the Pig was killed, the shock, the horror, the BRUTALITY! I tried to explain that it was the most humane way to kill the Pig compared to the last one here that was hung upside down and had a hole cut in its throat so it could slowly bleed out, squealing in pain, kicking and thrashing around for almost a full hour before it finally died! But nope... :sorry:

    "Informative" doesn't mean a person "Agrees" with the information. :wink:

    Whew, I found the sign. About 250 meters north of where Google shows him, still behind Judyville Subdivision.

    They are combined? :confused:

    Handy to know about the Car Rentals, one day when I get a Philippines Licence I may check them out and have a bite to eat while I am there... :smile:

    Yeah, I've stopped there to inquire about car rentals. They rent cars like a Wigo for 1500 a day or a mid size car for 2,000 a day. Strange combination: Car rentals and Lechon sales. Funny I never noticed the lechon for sale sign. Thanks for the pic and the info.

    I have noticed when heading North past Robinson's, you turn right at the intersection to head into the city past the Ceres Bus terminal, just as you turn right at the Robinson's intersection look to your right and there is a small modern looking clean building advertising Lechon. Looks like you can sit outside and eat as well as take-away...

    The link can tell you but I tend think You can, I know it is a bit far from you but I feel it will be well worth a visit, but then Dave, you can ask via the Page messages that they say, are answered quickly, maybe you will let us know as and when?
