Calling All Cannibals.......
Iraqis are terrorists. Indians are taxi drivers . And Filipinos are maids. In Vietnam, we are singers and dancers and in Japan, we are prostitutes, too. Hurray! (Jokes!)
On a more serious note ie. lower do, my friend touched this subject in her blog.
Case in point: overseas migration. Filipino* (m)*others leave their families because they have been socialized to value them in a way that enthrones sacrifice,suffering and upward social mobility as virtues. (You Can Because You Must)
To the long list of jobs outside Philippines Filipinos are filling up, usually with lower pay and less privileges, not inVietnam though or at least the Filipinos Iive met here, thus replacing the locals, we can now add that Filipinos are also biscuits.
That's not a job, but take not the fun out of it, shall we?
Filipinos is the brand name for a series of biscuit snacks made by Kraft Foods. In Spain and Portugal they are produced and sold under the Artiach brand name. Under license to United Biscuits, in the Netherlands they are sold and produced locally under the Verkade brand.
Wanna eat Filipinos? Admit, don't be ssshy.
We eat dogs. We eat cats. We eat rats. Umm, do we also eat bats?

Don't worry about that. In Catalonia we also eat Bulgarians (a rolled cake),Conguitos - little congolese (wrapped chocolate peanuts), and drink Swiss (hot chocolate with cream), Americans (long black coffee)and eat Filipinos (black or white)... sorry.
Cannibals... ~_~

to gamergirl-although i'll vote for you for socialist president of our fucked up country, i won't go with you here. i'm all for freedom, eat whatever you like as long as you don't kill humans, cheese with molds, molds with cheese, insects, pests,inscts with molds, inscts with pests i could go on and on.
to marta cebrian-brands, names are not really important, what i care about is the living conditions of the average Filipino family (this is a such a sudden turn, so me hehee)but yeah thats true, i don't associate this issue with my identity as filipino,at the moment, given the conditions of my country,to care about what people of other countries think of us is lame, i think
marta cebrian, i need to clarify:i don't associate this issue with my identity as filipino but given the conditions of my country blah....what i meant was, i have always relegated identity politics, gender, culture, as second to class :)of course if you complain about being labeled cannibals, then i'll rant about the word filipinos being used as a brand name for food. tit for tat.
