And as being raised by Souther Taft Samar fishing folk also they taught me to not eat at the meat carts when in Bageo.

Double eeewww.
Yeah PI was an adventure and history trip amongst other things to learn/exp. in life that I was lucky to have as a teen.
I've never been to Baguio. My first dog played with the girl dog at the next door neighbor's house right up until the time they cooked her and ate her. I never spoke to them again after that. Fugu (even if it may kill you)? No problem and it's delicious. Dog? Big problem.
For whatever it's worth, eating dog is not standard practice all across the Philippines. Both of my dogs were murdered by neighbors, probably because they ate better than many children in the neighborhood. Sigh.
