El Nido, Philippines Dec 5, 2012 Pork noodles. When they arrived they had a truly awful taste that coated your mouth. Like gone off oil and meat. But the man who brought them showed me to add lime, red vinegar, soy and white pepper. I added loads tried again. A little bit more edible but the original taste was still there. I gagged a little and decided I wasn't that hungry :)
