Looking for veggie meat in the Philippines?

June 2009,a foreign representative from People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA-Asia Pacific) had an appearance in the Brewrats. Their discussion (with the 3 rats) ran mostly on taking care of the animals. As the group also known for that advocacy to have a vegetarian diet, I had a question that night on where I can avail some veggie meat but I didn't have a chance to talk to them on the phone. Days and weeks later, one of their staff Rochelle Regodon accommodated my calls about my inquiry. Later on, they already answered my inquiry which I really want to share with you. These are the stores around the Philippines which you may either buy raw veggie meat or eat their veggie-meat inspired dishes. Just download it! Enjoy!
