ALAM NYO BA? Noong panahon ni President Ferdinand E. Marcos hindi uso ang PAGPAG sa kakalsadahan (pagkaing kinukuha sa barusa ipagpag lang pwede ng kainin) dahil mismong ang pamahalaan ang namimigay ng pagkain para maiwasang dumami ang malnourish sa bansa. Mapagkalinga sa bawat Pilipino ang mga Marcos noong kaya walang nagugutom sa kalsada.

Memories of Nutribun
Memories of Nutribun
If you are 70s baby and you went to a public elementary school, then you belong to Nutribun generation and have a fond memories of this cheap bread in the 70s.
Nutribun was introduced in the early 70s to public elementary school students to fill up the malnutrition and crisis during those years. This is similar to Monay bread. Each class was given the exact number of Nutriban for a very affordable price. The Nutribun costs only few cents, only about five centavos.
The bread is solid without air inside and not fluffy like the ordinary Pandesal. Once we consume the whole bun, we'd feel heavy and full because it was solid and it tasted good even without fillings or palaman.
