Misua is a very thin variety of salted chinese noodles made from wheat flour. It gets cooked in just a minute.

My daughter C, who is a picky eater, likes Misua as she associates this with her favorite pancit. Serving this at least hides the carrots in the meatball.  

100 Peso Meals just cover the cost of the main ingredients, not taking into consideration the gasul consumption, the cost of depreciation of the stove, paid labor by the household help, and other pantry items such as cooking oil, water and spices.  Nor does it account for the opportunity cost that I am staying at home blogging about this ulam.
