Many Cordillerans swear a meal is never complete without sili.

And that one's eating upsmanship is not the amount one takes in, but the number of red peppers you can squeeze in your eyes.

Bicolano, Ifugao, Kalinga can match that...making the Mexican's red devil or Cubanos' cupratso, a baby candy.
