A fan group posted a photo of premium rice selling for P20 a kilo in Quezon City.
Rating: FALSE
It was supposed to be in a rice stall in QC selling the White Pigeon brand of sinandomeng. (https://www.facebook.com/100044902184754/posts/561002878739780/?d=n)
Funny but the White Pigeon was the only one for P20 while the others were selling normally for P36 to P45.
Prices for White Pigeon range from P950 to P1,080 for a 25 kg sack or P38 to P43 a kilo. For White Pigeon to sell P20 a kilo could only mean it was infested with weevils or bukbok.
Reverse search for the image showed no other pictures so there’s a strong possibility that it was staged.
