• Erwan Heussaff joined the writing prompt #ManilaEncounters on Twitter, missed its core theme
• Netizens liken his entry to his “undercooked taho”
• Heusaff explained that the girl in his story was a ghost, which is made to fit the writing prompt

Over the past week, Filipinos on Twitter had their share and fill of short works focusing on Filipino folklore/occult/surreal/eerie/creepy happenings in Metro Manila (or the Philippines in general), mixed in a post-modern setting of the country.

Erwan Heussaff gamely joined in on the fun, but apparently missed the punchline.

Users turned the hashtag #ManilaEncounters into a speculative fiction writing prompt that saw witty entries ranging from being amusing, introspective, to pointblank creepy.

Heusaff posted a writing of his own in his account:

“I walk the streets blindly
The crowds face is bathed by the blue of their phones. All alone.
Across the road, a woman is staring straight up at the sky
Following her gaze, expecting to see something wrong, I realise how beautiful the glow of the city is at night
#ManilaEncounters”

But a few netizens pointed out that his work did not fit the hashtag’s theme. One netizen politely informed the Filipino-French entrepreneur and TV personality, “Dude, no shade, but I’m fairly sure that’s not how the hashtag works.”

Heusaff responded with “Are you sure she wasnt a ghost? Also take it up with the Hashtag Enterprise Keyboard Copyright Liability Entity (short: HECKLE)”.

Even so, a few netizens did not buy the reply and remarked “when you miss the point, like undercooked sago.”

This is in reference to Heussaff’s “failed” taho recipe video that became the object of ire on social media two years ago, when he used firm tofu and undercooked sago for his taho with his arnibal or syrup too thin and watery.

Many staunch taho lovers called this a “bastardization” of their beloved Filipino snack and the apologetic and redemptive Heussaff came back with a new taho recipe to explain his side on the matter and show to the public that he can cook an authentic taho.

Sharon Cuneta

Last February 2018, Megastar Sharon Cuneta, shared her secret on having a sexier body. She told one Netizen to just cut out all carbs but never ever skip meals.

The general public knows Erwan Heussaff as Anne Curtis’ future husband, and as a fitness advocate. He owns a personal blog, and would star in a show where he shares his recipe of healthy and delicious meals.

Heussaff lost a huge amount of weight after giving more attention to what he eats – leading him to become one of the fitspiration of most people.

Nevertheless, it seems like there are a few who aren’t convinced of Heussaff’s healthy diet.

A Twitter netizen just posted a tweet that piqued the curiosity of many.

At first, it seems confusing as to why the user said that he has more interest with what Juan Ponce Enrile eats rather than what Erwan Heussaff consumes, considering that he is more fit compared to the former.

But the netizen indirectly explained in his replies as to why he thinks that Enrile’s food is probably healthier. Aside from the thousands of likes and retweets that surprised him, he just found out that Enrile’s grandchild is one of those netizens.

The issue was intriguing for many, saying that Enrile is indeed old, and surprisingly alive. Some of those who replied gave their guesses as to why the man still exists.

Moreover, another user just emphasized that the man is shockingly older than sliced bread. Enrile was born in 1924, while the bread was introduced to the market in 1928.

What do you think is the secret why he is still breathing healthily? Does he have a special diet like Heussaff?

There is nothing permanent in show business.  A celebrity can be earning 7 figures one day, then go bankrupt the next day. Indeed, we have heard a lot of sad stories about Pinoy stars who became one-day millionaires.

Fortunately, there are celebrities who knew better.

Instead of spending all of their money on material things, these Pinoy celebrities opted to invest their hard-earned money on one of the most lucrative businesses in the country: food business.
