Parsley or garden parsley (Petroselinum crispum) is a species of Petroselinum in the family Apiaceae, native to the central Mediterranean region (southern Italy, Algeria, and Tunisia), naturalized elsewhere in Europe, and widely cultivated as an herb, a spice, and a vegetable. Where it grows as a biennial, in the first year, it forms a rosette of tripinnate leaves 25 cm long with numerous 3 cm leaflets, and a taproot used as a food store over the winter. Parsley is widely used in Middle Eastern, European, and American cooking.

Pasalubong refers to a Filipino tradition involving the giving of gifts or souvenirs, often food items, brought home by someone who has traveled from one place to another. It is a deeply rooted practice in Filipino culture, symbolizing thoughtfulness, affection, and the sharing of one's travels with family, friends, and colleagues. In the food context, pasalubong often consists of local delicacies or specialties from a particular region, town, or country that are not readily available in the recipient's area.
