Just recently there was a shortage in onions here. The prices spiked up and people were literally freaking out. Those who had bulk bought onions (Including my fam) were hiding it so that no one asks for some..🤣

I’ll mail you some onions so you can sell them for me and we share the profits 🤭. I trust you

Long suffering farmers could be making money. But middlemen and their cartels probably keep retail prices stupidly high.

Smuggling could be easy in the north. Batanes is close to Taiwan. The non Chinese natives of Taiwan and the Ivatan do share a similar language.

What is Philippine food without onions, garlic and soy sauce?

What is next? A rice shortage?
