New Century Bangus: Piolo's healthy choice
MANILA, Philippines - The Century Canning Corporation recently launched the newest addition to its family of products — Century Bangus.
Century Bangus comes from bangus grown and farmed the Century way — in seawater cages housed in the pure waters of Southern Mindanao. Not only do these bring fuller and meatier bangus like no other, we can also be sure the product is unsoiled and has no muddy taste.
The harvested fish are brought immediately to Century’s world-class processing facilities where the fish is packed on the same day. Century’s processing facilities have been accredited by the EU and US FDA, after meeting the world’s strict product standards.
As we all know, our national fish is a good source of protein and calcium. But did you know that it is also rich in Omega-3 DHA which is good for the memory and for the heart.
“Sarap na farm-fresh, world-class- that’s our battlecry! We are serving something new to the Filipino dining table. More than that, we also are trying to create a market for cultured seafood that is a renewable and sustainable source of healthy protein. We’re doing this since we want to reduce the load on wild-caught fish stocks and preserve our ocean’s natural resources. We are certain that Century Bangus could not only very well satisfy the Pinoys’ taste buds but also even the most discerning palates across the globe,” said Emerito T. Alejo, assistant vice president business development for emerging businesses.
Last June 3 at the Enderun Colleges in Fort Bonifacio Taguig, Century Bangus presented its ambassador, Piolo Pascual.
Century Bangus comes with a whole range of bangus products and recipes that are sure to make mouths water. There’s Century Bangus Fillet seasoned, spiced and cooked to perfection available in vegetable oil, Spanish Style or Savory Tausi. It’s ready to eat with its easy-open lid so you can enjoy it anytime, anywhere. There’s Century Bangus Chunks, delectable and filling bangus chunks prepared the home-cooked Paksiw way, with Tausi or Spanish Style, and Century Bangus Sisig, a healthier, lighter alternative to our favorite sizzling sisig! For lovers of classics, there is the Century Quality Premium Boneless Bangus, marinated in vinegar with the right amount of pepper and splashed with real garlic bits — the formula that makes it a cut above the others.
Century Quality Premium Boneless Bangus Belly Unseasoned just might be the one. This yummy treat packs delicately chosen bangus belly cuts for the discriminating individuals who like their bangus in prime cuts. There’s Century Quality Premium Boneless Bangus Belly Marinated too for one who wants a quick ready-to-cook meal. And last but not the least, there’s the ultimate alternative to your favorite Filipino pork tocino made healthy by Century- Century Quality Premium Boneless Bangus Tocino. All these are reasonably priced and are available in the frozen and canned fish sections of leading supermarkets nationwide.
