Lechon Bread!

I was looking for chestnuts, and instead I found this. No camera but a quick pic w/ my cellphone so I can share my amusement with you :-)


My first time to see this kind of bread....

well, at least you don't have to worry about cholesterol, high blood and the guilt of eating something forbidden!

Oink!

  1. I promise I'm going to go back one of these days and buy one, unwrap the plastic and compare this lechon w/ the real thing!

  5. Cat, I am sure merong moulded pan yan. Baka naman pwede kang bumili sa kanila. Is it some kind of a french bread? Mukhang crusty ang crust.

    They look so cute.

  10. but pano kaya sa topmost part where the head, ears and snout are? if I wasn't in a hurry to go back home, I'd have grabbed one...

    medyo malayo kc itong store na to...but I will try to get back there and get my hands on this para I can taste it :-)

    it would be fun if the filling was lechon meat ;-)

    I am guessing baka naman some Chinese folks have these to include it in the Christmas or New Year dinner table...

  11. the last 2 lechons I tasted here in Cebu were so flavorful that putting sarsa on it would be a crime :-)

    in fact, I even forego vinegar or any other dips when I have lechon here...

    but maybe for this bread, that would be fun :-)

  12. lechon jam? versus lechon jelly kaya?

    maybe some lechon butter...

    argh! pass lang muna ako :-)

  13. i am almost certain its just plain bread molded into shape of a lechon.

  14. I think so too...or if it has filling, baka its like a meatroll lechon-shaped version lang :-)

  15. Yes, that would be a mortal sin!! Cebu, I heard has the best lechon in the Philippines.

  19. just think..you can eat this (if you like bread and lechon but don't want the health risks) :-)

  20. I think that is more of what is really the truth....

    imagine if you put this on a table w/ the real lechon at the side :-)
