00:00Craving giant fries? How about chocolate with a hint of Sampaloc?
00:05These foods, as well as food innovations, were brought to a food expo in Pasay.
00:12This is the report of Bernadette Reyes.
00:17Sampaloc and chocolate.
00:19It's a weird combination, but that's the creation of Isaganyo.
00:22He used to work on a cruise ship.
00:24Now, he gave up his business after studying to become a chocolatier.
00:29The sweetness of the chocolate and the sourness of the tamarind, you have a fruity flavor.
00:38In America, there are raisins that are coated with chocolate,
00:41while here in the Philippines, there is Sampaloc that is coated with chocolate.
00:47It's sweet, it's sour, it's perfect for the Filipino taste.
00:50It's not too sweet. Actually, it's more delicious than the one I bought in Thailand.
00:55Another chocolate creation is Isaganyo's cacao jam.
00:59Why not use the pulp of the cacao jam instead of throwing it away?
01:04That's just a few of the items that were brought to the 17th Philippine Food Expo in Pasay.
01:09There are also giant fries and donuts with a Filipino twist.
01:15We have buko pandan, pastillas, leche flan, and mango grahams.
01:20Aside from the food items that were brought to the Food Expo,
01:24there are also items that can improve the quality of products and services.
01:29Out of the 300 exhibitors, we have 75 equipments.
01:34So, for the first time, we have equipments manufacturers joining.
01:37Like the machine that can turn soil into leftover food.
01:41If you put it in the machine, you have your own compost machine in your kitchen.
01:48The Philippine Food Expo is said to be a good platform to show the proud Filipino products
01:53as well as the Filipinos' hospitality and business-mindedness.
01:57It's a chance for our food exporters to be able to showcase the products.
02:03It's just super-tocals.
