    I appreciate that you were really respectful about the whole spaghetti part lol It's been my comfort food even well into my adulthood
    Fun fact: the reason why Filipino spaghetti is sweet is because in WWII there was a tomato shortage in the Philippines, so they substituted tomato-based products with a banana sauce consisting of mashed bananas, vinegar, spices, and red dye.

    That sweet spaghetti is definitely hated by a lot of non Filipinos. But we grow up with it. Most say they tasted it when they were a child and call the spaghetti for the “poor” but in the Philippines and to us Filipinos it’s our childhood and we grew up with this amazing food.

    Papa JW, one thing you need to know is that in the Philippines, the sauce we put in our spaghetti contains Banana Catsup. This is what gives it the sweet, tangy flavour, hence we don't need to add a lot of sugar to it. Also, some Filipino Mums add milk powder or evaporated milk in their sauces, hence adding another dimension to it. It's great you tried, and yes, hats off to you bud.
    As an apprentice chef, I understand your aversion to not making it in the traditional italian pomodoro/napoli sauce, but thank you for still trying. Jollibee is a childhood staple and classic.

    For non-Filipinos who might be wondering how one can like the absurdity of a very sweet spaghetti, just think of having it as your introduction to spaghetti as a kid without knowing about the traditional style. I bet that you'll love it as well. I even think that most Filipinos haven't had a taste of the traditional spaghetti and I guarantee you as well that most of them won't like it when they try it. It's also not like we like everything to be extra sweet over here, it's just a culture thing. That's all that there is to it.

      I’m not Filipino but I’ve always preferred a sweeter spaghetti sauce so I was really intrigued when I first heard of Jollibee’s and the concept of Filipino spaghetti. No Jollibee’s near me sadly, but I read about it and watched some videos. I bought containers of something called I think sweet Filipino spaghetti sauce and even ordered banana ketchup online! I finally got to make it and I LOVE it. Definitely different from an Italian type of sauce - which I also love - but I think it’s fantastic. I can’t believe I never heard of it until recently.

    As for your approach to our fried breaded chicken, it's a culinary upgrade if Jollibee would consider.
    Not to mention, he asked a Filipino to rate both meals, and staying true to his Filipino roots.

    Yup, that’s definitely the typical reaction a non-Filipino has to Filipino style spaghetti. It’s probably pretty weird to taste something that’s usually savory be sweet in another culture or recipe. Kinda like my experience with avocados. I like them accompanied with chips and in sandwiches, but not much as a ice cream or dessert flavor.
    And I’ve always preferred the texture of the fried chicken from Jollibee than KFC. I like the seasoning on KFC a bit more, but not the biggest fan of them not doing so well at making their breading crispy most of the time. And the Jollibee near your place doesn’t do chicken breasts? I guess that’s a foreign Jollibee thing, as last time I’ve been there they still do Chicken Joy breasts.

      I had a similar reaction the first time wife (filipina) made her version of Jollibee's spaghetti. I liked it, but it was weird and different. She perfected her recipie and now over 10 years later, her spaghetti that she just calls, "Filipino Spaghetti" is the only spaghetti I will eat. Of course she still thinks Jollibee is better but I think that has more to do with childhood nostalgia than anything else.

    Children has always been the target customer of Jollibee and Children just love sweet things and hotdogs, that's the reason behind the sweet spaghetti. Even at Filipino homes, parents cook spaghetti not for themselves but for their children so they would cook what their kids want.

    Some history with our spaghetti, when we were introduced to it and ketchup, tomatoes weren't readily available back then in the Philippines but we had abundance of bananas. With this we made banana ketchup to replace our tomato ketchup that wasn't available. So it naturally has a sweet flavor from the bananas and dyed it red to look like tomatoe ketchup.. Then we started using it to replace tomatoes in other dishes like spaghetti, that is why its sweet. Hope that helps you understand why it's sweet

      One thing you got wrong, we had the banana ketchup during the 2nd world war, since we had no way to import nor transport tomatoes to factories, Maria Orosa sought for a way to substitute popular condiments using local resources and thus the banana ketchup was invented

      Filipinos barely had enough tomatoes to make sauce for spaghetti or pasta back in Post-WW2. So, in a brilliant moment of desperation, They used bananas as a substitute. That’s why it ended up being so sweet.

      Sweet spaghetti is absolute garbage, and I'm surprised foreigners can even stand eating our own spaghetti.
      Like, tbh hotdogs are a fine substitute for meatballs, and cheese isn't often standard, but it works, but the sauce...
      The spaghetti sauce we use is atrocious.
      Every birthday party, every restaurant both fast food and high class, sweet spaghetti is served and it does not mesh well at all, especially when paired with all the other food you may be eating with it.
      Standard Spaghetti being sweet and sour provides a perfect mix that makes eating the dish delectable and overall a pleasant experience, especially if you add more to it like basil, oregano, a lot of different greens to add to it. Specially made meatballs make some beautiful spaghetti dishes that are incredibly filling and incredibly delicious.
      My whole family and I have tried doing anything to change the taste of Filipino styled Spaghetti, it hasn't changed shit. The sweetness of Filipino spaghetti overpowers anything you put into it. I would have to spend more than necessary just to make the spaghetti more balanced, and at that point, I should have just made regular spaghetti. Eating Filipino Spaghetti is like eating sugar, it's super fucking sweet. I would not be surprised if the leading cause of diabetes in the Philippines can be linked to people who consume Filipino Styled Spaghetti.
