Foods Containing Coconut
Food is any substance consumed by an organism for nutritional support. Food is usually of plant, animal, or fungal origin, and contains essential nutrients, such as carbohydrates, fats, proteins, vitamins, or minerals. The substance is ingested by an organism and assimilated by the organism's cells to provide energy, maintain life, or stimulate growth. Different species of animals have different feeding behaviours that satisfy the needs of their unique metabolisms, often evolved to fill a specific ecological niche within specific geographical contexts. Omnivorous humans are highly adaptable and have adapted to obtain food in many different ecosystems. The majority of the food energy required is supplied by the industrial food industry, which produces food with intensive agriculture and distributes it through complex food processing and food distribution systems. This system of conventional agriculture relies heavily on fossil fuels, which means that the food and agricultur ...

Puto Bumbong
''Puto bumbong'' is a Filipino purple rice cake steamed in bamboo tubes - widely known as puto bumbonger or bumbongizer. It is traditionally sold during the Christmas season. It is a type of '' puto'' (steamed rice cake). Etymology The name is derived from Tagalog '' puto'' (steamed rice cakes) and ''bumbong'' or ''bombong'' ("bamboo tube"). The names are sometimes mistakenly spelled as ''puto bungbong'' or ''puto bongbong''. Description ''Puto bumbong'' is made from a unique heirloom variety of glutinous rice called '' pirurutong'' (also called ''tapol'' in Visayan) which is deep purple to almost black in color. ''Pirurutong'' is mixed with a larger ratio of white glutinous rice (''malagkit'' or ''malagkit sungsong'' in Tagalog; ''pilit'' in Visayan). Regular white rice may also be used instead of ''malagkit'', to give the dish a less chewy consistency. In the Philippines, ''puto bumbong'' is traditionally served in Christmas gatherings together with ''bibingka''. The rice ...

Christmas In The Philippines
Christmas in the Philippines ( fil, Pasko sa Pilipinas) is one of the biggest holidays in the country. The Philippines, one of the two predominantly Catholic countries in Asia (the other one being East Timor), celebrates the world's longest Christmas season ( fil, Kapaskuhan, link=no).

Officially, the holiday season is observed by the Catholic Church from the first day of Advent—the fourth Sunday before Christmas—to Epiphany (Three Kings' Day), which falls between January 2 and 8. Etymology and nomenclature In Filipino and most Philippine languages, the word '' Paskó'' commonly refers to Christmas. It comes from the Spanish phrase "''pascua de navidad''" (); the l ...

Street Food
Street food is ready-to-eat food or drinks sold by a hawker, or vendor, in a street or at other public places, such as markets or fairs. It is often sold from a portable food booth, food cart, or food truck and is meant for immediate consumption. Some street foods are regional, but many have spread beyond their regions of origin. Most street foods are classified as both finger food and fast food, and are typically cheaper than restaurant meals. The types of street food widely vary between regions and cultures in different countries around the world. According to a 2007 study from the Food and Agriculture Organization, 2.5 billion people eat street food every day. A majority of middle-income consumers rely on the quick access and cheap service of street food for daily nutrition and job opportunities, especially in developing countries. Today, governments and other organizations are increasingly concerned with both the socioeconomic importance of street food, and with its associa ...
