I have the biggest sweet tooth, but I have even bigger cravings for things that are sweet AND salty! Reviewing this list from HowLongToCook.org of the 55 most beloved street foods around the world, I was pleasantly surprised to find that there were plenty of dessert type dishes that filled my food-niche. Where to start, from Philippine Banana-cue to churros, my mouth is watering reading this list. I do want to point out that the Philippines have TWO on this list that absolutely check every box for me. The aforementioned Banana-cue and the Halo-Halo. The Banana dish is deep fried bananas essentially and let's face it, being American myself deep fried foods are basically part of my food pyramid! The way that Halo Halo is described, that has to take the cake of the dessert on my bucket list (no pun intended). The Halo Halo is a crushed ice and condensed milk mixture with various toppings. Some popular toppings include yams and coconut shavings. I hope to be able to try some authentic Philippine desserts soon!
