The only thing that makes me not trust ordering again is that you're supposed to pay one peso per package of 3.0 to 3.4, and only one weighed 3.00 and the other 2.00... that's the only thing that makes me not trust ordering again

This pack contains three large pork tongues. I sliced each one from tip to base with a knife and stewed it in a pressure cooker. It's softer than the sliced beef tongue sold by Weee. It doesn't require much preparation, just washing it and trimming off the fat. You could also grill it and eat it. It's a generous 2.5 pounds. The tongues are frozen in bulk in one bag.

The reviews are good, I hope I won't be disappointed

Great, the pork tongue is cleaned, very fresh, just cook and eat, no need to do anything, I am very satisfied
minhtrixuanhue
I made braised pig tongue, which was cooked longer than the ones sold outside so it is softer. The elderly at home can finally eat the braised pig tongue they have been craving for.
