This is a good point pokkha!

I couldn't agree more on the fact that Filipinos are very much influenced by the Americans--everything that comes from America is just so extra special to us! It's hilarious at some point--most people would have this mindset (especially back in the late 80's to the early 90's)that everything stateside is better and superior! LOL! And now, everything is made in China pretty much=P
FOODWISE:
Yes I love American food--Jollibee is kind of a reflection of the pseudo Filipino-American burger joint. (Jollibee remains to be number1 folks!)So is Go nuts Donuts to Krispy Kreme. The list goes on! Who would know that filipinos would open Starbucks-ish cafes with names like San Francisco Coffee and Figaro?!!? (non Filipino sounding eh!)
who would know Yellow Cab, a purely Filipino owned pizza place would kick Pizza Hut off its number 1 pizza delivery throne?

Do you think Filipinos are copy cats? (for lack of a better word) Is this brought upon by a lack of identity? (Historically--Spanish, American and japanese Occupation)
