Christmas is right around the corner and we Filipinos have shown our excitement for it since the ber months came in. Decorations have gone on sale since September, large screens that count down to the holiday are in most shopping malls, and some families already put up their Christmas trees.
We all have Christmas traditions that we look forward to: eating puto bumbong and bibingka after simbang gabi, receiving aguinaldo from ninongs and ninangs, and of course, the Noche Buena feast. Noche Buena is when we reunite with our loved ones and come together for a night of laughter and conversation over delicious, lovingly prepared home-cooked dishes.
Lady’s Choice has been a part of our Noche Buena traditions for a long time now, with its mayonnaise being a key ingredient of one of the best loved dishes served during yuletide get-togethers: macaroni salad. Macaroni salads are always a crowd favorite; you rarely get to attend a salu-salo where you won’t find a large bowl of it on the table.
We all have memories of our moms preparing a large bowl of macaroni salad for Noche Buena; we remember watching her cook all the ingredients and helping out as she mixes everything with a creamy coating of mayonnaise. Lady’s Choice Mayonnaise has always been every mom’s top pick to make her macaroni salad because, like in all things, she wants nothing but the best for her loved ones.
Moms always make sure that her kids have the best and most memorable Christmas every year. She takes care of everything: putting up the decorations, cooking the dishes, buying and wrapping the presents, and everything else that needs to be done. She’s also the one who’s behind almost every one of our Christmas traditions.
Lady’s Choice seeks to celebrate our Christmas traditions and every mom behind it every year. This holiday season, they are releasing three short films that show just how much effort mothers put into every aspect of a Pinoy Christmas. They released the first one, “Mom’s Little Girl”, was released in early October and has already gone viral on Facebook.
The second one, “Mama Claus”, tells the story of a child eagerly anticipating Christmas. He helps his mom make macaroni salad each day and they leave a bowl out for Santa Claus. Each morning, the boy finds a gift for him and an empty bowl. A sweet, touching reveal on the 25th day of December in the video will surely tug at your heartstrings. ADVT
