On rare occasions in Honduras when we went to town, we could load up on the local fruit which was excellent, and dirt cheap --- but obviously we spent more time loading up on the booze & broads in the bars & bordellos... The Philippines had a ton of different exotic fruits & vegetables..DeplorablePatriot » 13 May 2023, 12:19 pm » wrote: ↑ My favorites were all the tropical fruit we could eat after re-supplying the carrier at S.

Tiny place had ice cold brew for 2 pesos at the time. How about balut? I had to down a few brews before I ate one. Eggs with a crunch. MMMmmmm!

I did a few TDY (Temp Duty) from Suwon AB Korea to Clark Air Base outside Angeles City.. I know that **** half-hatched Duck Egg you're talking about... I just couldn't get drunk & brave enough to try one... I did indeed enjoy many a cold San Miguel, and a much stronger Brew that would seriously hammer you called Red Horse Ale... They were the perfect compliment to the LBFM entertainment for the evening... I try and tell folks of my experience in the P.I. bars, but as you know, it's really beyond description LOL..
