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.
