Each year, World Children’s Day is celebrated on November 20. It was first established in 1954 to promote awareness of children and their welfare. This date holds great significance as it marks the adoption of the Declaration of the Rights of the Child by the UN General Assembly in 1959, as well as the adoption of the Convention on the Rights of the Child In 1989. Thus, November 20 has been commemorated as the anniversary of these milestones.

‘Chorizo de Cebu’is a sausage from the Queen City of the South as part of its Spanish Heritage. This famous Philippine delicacy originating from Cebu is a red flavorful bomb made from ground pork fat and pork lean, salt, sugar, black pepper, and chilis, among other ingredients.

I am here for something different, and that is to share my personal experience about these delicious balls of flavor.
