The mid afternoon snack is part of our culture that we eat something at around 3 pm to 4 pm to prevent hunger because dinner is still far at usually 8 pm. In this regard the fast food burgers and their snack items have high sales during the period of afternoon snacking.
For the native foods that we have it is nice to eat for snack when it is hot like the porridge or the sweet ginatan as can be seen in the picture above. It is a merry mix of banana plantain, taro, balled glutinous rice, jackfruit and the base is coconut milk with sugar. The ingredients are cheap but the price is not because of the needed laborious preparation. But when delivered hot it is a very satisfying afternoon snack.
