It doesnāt matter if youāre comparing it to something thatās not even food. The important thing is that they understand (maybe) what youāre trying to say.
Today, we went through looloo reviews and comments to find some of the most hilarious words that looloo reviewers have used to describe their food! If anything, this list may even expand your vocabulary when describing what youāre eating.
1. Lasang Paa / Lasang Medyas
Used to describe tea or sometimes an innocent bowl of noodles, itās possible that these reviewers have at one point, actually tried to sample their own feet.

2. Lasang Halaman / Lasang Damo
Any dish thatās āvegetablyā, like salads or pastas with copious amounts of greens, seems to deserve this phrase. Mostly used by vegetable haters, we think itās spot-on considering that vegetables are actually plants.

3. Lasang Lupa / Lasang Matanda
This is most likely the Filipino version of food that in English, has an āearthy flavor.ā Describing food as something that tastes like soil makes sense to describe root crops or perhaps even tea. But comparing it to an old person? Whuuut.
4. Lasang Gamot / Lasang Tempra
Either these reviewers still take Tempra for their fever or their childhood memory of taking it is so strong, they can still taste it. As for ālasang gamot,ā reviewers have been using it to describe a wide range of food items like fried chicken, fruit shakes, and even cronuts!
5. Lasang Anting-Anting
Okay this is too weird. We canāt even.
Seriously though, is there anyone out there who has any idea how anting-anting even tastes like?
6. Lasang Ipis
Unless youāre an exotic food fan, we donāt think youāve ever tried to intentionally eat a random crawling cockroach so weāre not exactly sure how something can taste like ipis. In case youāre wondering, this phrase has been used on looloo to describe onion rings and (once again) noodles. Poor noodles.
7. Lasang Agnas / Lasang Amag
First of all, agnas isnāt even anything that you can taste! Although if we look at it closely,agnas in English means to decompose. So this may be an alternative word to describe something that tastes old or bulok, which is how anything with mold (or amag) would taste like.
Cheese lovers will be disappointed to find out that this phrase has been used mainly to describe blue cheese and gorgonzola. To cheese-n00bs though, itās a pretty accurate description.

8. Lasang Kili-Kili / Lasang Surot
Weāve found that anything that has cumin or cilantro is described this way by some looloo reviewers. Both have pretty strong flavors that can conjure up memories of no-deodorant days. Comparing it to surot (bed bugs) though is definitely less common. That, and we personally donāt know anyone whoās ever snacked on bed bugs.
You may hate cilantro now simply because You do not have permission to view the full content of this post. Log in or register now. But the good news is, itās something you can get used to! Maybe adding some Rexona next time will help? Hehehe.
9. Lasang Altar / Lasang Lamay / Lasang Kandila
Lasang lamay has got to be the weirdest one of them all. Itās completely understandable how anything that has flowers as part of its ingredients (like Rose Milk Tea) can be described as lasang altar, lasang bulaklak or lasang kandila butā¦.lasang lamay?!
10. Lasang Pasko
They say scent is a powerful memory trigger but for people who love food, itās gotta go beyond just the smell. Give people puto bumbong or quezo de bola and they will be reminded of Christmas. But for some looloo reviewers, sometimes, it could anything flavored with peppermint or cinnamon. Maybe the You do not have permission to view the full content of this post. Log in or register now. have something to do with this? Doesnāt matter though. If we can be reminded of Christmas in the middle of this summer heat, weāll take it!
Do any of these words sound familiar to you? Or maybe youāve heard of other hilarious or even stranger descriptions before? Let us know in the comments section!
