00:00Aside from ham, the Lechon is also a staple in Hapag ng Ilan every Christmas Eve.

00:08It's now being sold in La Loma in Quezon City, but the Health Department has a reminder.

00:14From there, Raffy Quima is live.

00:17Raffy?

00:21Mayor, despite the heavy rains, the buyers are still buying from La Loma.

00:28It's hard to find someone who's willing to buy from La Loma every Christmas Eve.

00:32It's not just the Lechon that's expensive, but there's a lot to choose from.

00:41As expected, the Lechon is a blockbuster here in La Loma.

00:45The line of Golden Crispy Lechon doesn't take long to arrive.

00:50This Lechon will soon be on display.

00:53It's not that expensive.

00:55Although the Lechon is a bit short, the price is still around 8,000 to 10,000 pesos.

01:04This family has been selling Lechon for more than two decades.

01:08They prepare the Lechon every Christmas Eve.

01:11Before, they could only buy 6,500 Lechon.

01:14Now, the price has doubled.

01:16For 25,000 pesos, we need a Lechon.

01:20So even if the Lechon is expensive, you will continue this tradition?

01:24Yes.

01:27In fact, these Lechon are already cheap because most of the pork comes from backyard hog raisers.

01:33But because the preparation is fast, it's really expensive once it's cooked.

01:38From the cutting that is done in this part of the establishment until the Lechon is cooked,

01:44it takes up to 6 to 8 hours depending on the size.

01:49The Lechon has been cooked for two hours and it's almost done.

01:53They add a secret ingredient that makes the Lechon more delicious.

02:00But DOH reminds us to be careful when eating fat foods like Lechon.

02:05Even if there are a lot of preparations, our diet should still be balanced.

02:09So our plate should have half of fruits and vegetables,

02:12one-fourth of carbohydrates or rice and pancit,

02:16and one-fourth of Lechon, Hamon, etc.

02:19Chito, who sells Lechon in La Loma, admitted that he knows someone who avoids Lechon.

02:25My stomach hurts.

02:28That's why you should be careful when eating fat foods.

02:36Most of the stores here close at 10 p.m.

02:39But there are also open 24 hours.

02:41Tomorrow, they will return to selling Lechon.

02:44It is expected that many people will still buy until the end of the new year.

02:49That's the latest from La Loma.

02:51Mel?

02:52Rafi, please help me there.

02:54My skin is itching.

02:57Thank you very much, Rafi Tima.
