Ano ang Pambansang Gulay ng Pilipinas?
Ayon sa House Bill No. 2072, ang malunggay ang siyang pambansang gulay ng Pilipinas.
In 2014, the Philippine House of Representatives passed a bill officially declaring moringa the national vegetable of the Philippines. In the very same bill, November was designated National Malunggay Month!
In the Philippines, moringa leaves and fruit pods are eaten as vegetables. Recently, in the west, moringa powder has become a popular health additive. In the United States, you can buy moringa powder imported from India. There are also a wide variety of Filipino products on Amazon, including plastic-wrapped paper boxes full of malunggay-tea sachets.
