00:00If in Bajo, they have a man-made sliding slide,
00:03here in Gloria, it's made in bamboo?
00:11Gloria's home is in Oriental Mindoro.
00:13She's passionate about bamboo,
00:14so even her sleds are made of bamboo.
00:17Fasten your seatbelt to an exciting ride down the bamboo slide.
00:22We haven't featured a bamboo slide yet.
00:27So how did it start?
00:28The president of the Malubay Ecotourism Association
00:33came up with the idea of having a unique activity here.
00:37Of course, this is new and it's made of bamboo.
00:40What about the durability?
00:43When we tried it, we consulted with experts
00:48to find out the safety level.
00:53From time to time, we have it checked.
00:55It's 180 meters long and only takes 10 seconds to reach the end.
01:00It's fast!
01:02But of course, this is my trip,
01:04so I'll try it for you first.
01:06In 3, 2, 1!
01:08Let's go!
01:21I guess you're here to find out what I felt.
01:25Well, actually, it's okay to go down.
01:29If you want it to go faster,
01:31go faster and faster,
01:33if you want it to go longer and longer,
01:35then you'll have to hold on a bit.
01:37I feel like they're just in the first part,
01:40but this is a long challenge
01:42to make the beautiful and fun experience
01:45brought by Gloria longer.
01:49Who would have thought that a simple bamboo
01:51can make a thrilling adventure?
01:53It's not just fun in the province.
01:56Where else?
01:57Bamboo can be used in many ways.
01:59Aside from being a slide,
02:00do you know that it can also be eaten?
02:03What is the part of the bamboo
02:06that you're going to make?
02:08How do you know?
02:10This one.
02:12It's still young,
02:14and it's only one foot tall.
02:17And usually,
02:19how long does it take for you to harvest the bamboo?
02:22This one?
02:23I think it takes about one week.
02:25Just one week?
02:27Yes.
02:28That's how long it takes to grow?
02:30Yes.
02:31They're right.
02:32If it's bamboo,
02:33it grows really fast.
02:35Yes, it grows fast.
02:36It grows fast.
02:38Let's hurry up and harvest it
02:40before others do.
02:42With bamboo shoots,
02:44or labong,
02:45the locals of Gloria have made
02:47various dishes.
02:49There are dishes like labong relleno
02:51and labong french lumpia,
02:53a reminiscent side dish of labong kimchi
02:55and a snack of labong french fries.
02:57Maybe we can start with
02:59the labong french fries.
03:02There.
03:04See?
03:10Alright.
03:11I can't hold this,
03:14so I can use their bamboo utensil.
03:19Wait.
03:20Sharp enough.
03:21Mmm.
03:26It's labong relleno,
03:27but this one is steamed.
03:29This one uses the bamboo itself,
03:31which apparently takes longer.
03:33But let's see if there's a difference in taste.
03:37See?
03:38This one is steamed.
03:46Mmm.
03:51Mmm.
03:54This tastes differently, I think.
03:56For me,
03:57it's better because
03:59I like the one with a bit of texture.
04:02The steamed one is alright, but
04:05between the two,
04:07I would prefer this.
04:09And of course,
04:10your classic lumpiang kubad.
04:12But this one,
04:14labong as well.
04:15Mmm.
04:20This one has meat.
04:22Mmm.
04:24It's such a great base ingredient
04:27to any dish because
04:29it's healthy,
04:30it's easy to cook with,
04:32and it's yummy.
04:45You can just watch
04:46all the Behind the Drew episodes
04:48all day,
04:49forever in your life.
04:50Let's go!
04:51Yeehaw!
