Benignit

“PUASA.” It is the season once again for benignit, said an Ear informer. Many people look forward to eating benignit during the Holy Week as an alternative to eating a full meal. “Naandan na man gud sa among pamilya nga magluto og benignit basta Semana Santa. Mao ra gyud among kan-on ilabi na inig Biyernes Santo kay puasa baya,” she said.

COMFORT FOOD. Benignit has become a comfort food for some. Another Ear informer said he is going home to his hometown in northern Cebu during the Holy Week break just to eat benignit. “Lami gyud ang benignit sa akong mama. Mao nang mo uli gyud ko sa amo basta Semana Santa,” he said.
