Last week, news broke out that there are almost 60 fresh cases of COVID in Southern Philippines Medical Center, the largest government-owned hospital in Mindanao. It was alarming because, with this news, it somehow meant that the health systems of our region are slowly collapsing. We got worried because there are not very many nurses and doctors on duty in this part of the country, and with them getting COVID-positive, it means that they can now only do so much. When the health system collapses, we have nowhere left to go.
With that news that stunned us all, you realize one thing: we’re failing this. It might be a very negative thing to think of but the reality stands. We are cracking and the only way to help these frontliners who risk their lives every day for us, is to stay home. There’s not much we can do without the vaccine. So we just need to follow the orders from our government. Many are opposed to what they say, many are angered by their inefficiency. But what else is left to do but to wait for the vaccine to be available?
As for us, who are lucky enough not to be directly facing the enemy, we can continue keeping our social distances and just stay in the safety of our houses. Avoid going out when it’s not essential. Avoid going to crowded places like malls, supermarkets, and groceries. With the MGCQ thing now, you might be complacent and think that it’s okay to be traveling from Lasang to Toril. But actually it’s not. There’s many risks involved even if you’re traveling privately because the transmission of the virus is now airborne as confirmed by WHO! For us to defeat COVID19, we need to do things at home as much as we can. Work from home, shop online, and just be patient if you cannot get your usual indulgences like spa or pedicure. For essential things, you can count on a lot of Davao online grocery stores and delivery services like the Malagos Homegrown Produce online store. They recently launched their Stay Home, Stay Homegrown campaign to encourage us all to do our part in this fight and save the frontliners from their fall.

Since the pandemic had come to existence, people have been more and more cautious by the day. They have cast higher standards when it comes to cleanliness and food safety. They just don't choose any other food outlet because they know their health safety is a stake. And admit it, these days, nobody has the time to get sick,
As a small food business owner, I always maintain regular cleaning and disinfecting in my facility in order to serve only the safest to my customers. I know that with consumers' new meticulous standards, restaurants that follow proper food handling protocols and strict standards in cleaning facilities take the place in leading their lists of trusted restaurants.
With all these mentioned, I make sure that our facility is well-disinfected and cleaned. I always see to it that the foods are well-packed and sealed for protection. Meanwhile, it is also equally important to have enough supply of disinfectant products, especially in a food business. People get to eat our food and nobody deserves an unclean one. However, I usually encounter problems when buying disinfectants because I can only take out a limited number of them.
Luckily, one online grocery and delivery has relieved me of this problem. I only had to go to their website, choose my orders, and they instantly delivered it to me. This online supermarket I am pertaining to is Instakart Davao. It has really solved my problems since they never run out of disinfectants. Aside from being more convenient, it's also amazingly affordable and practical because different kinds of disinfectants with their respective uses are already bundled in one. This typically lessens my task since I can get a total package of disinfectant in one click. Fast delivery also makes it easier for me since I get the items whenever I need them.
This is really an all-in-one supermarket that addresses all of my concerns. It does not only save me time and money. It also guarantees that there's always a disinfectant for me and there's no need to worry about running out of it. During this new normal when customers have become more meticulous in terms of a food outlet's food safety standards and facility cleanliness, buying disinfectants online is a wiser choice in terms of affordability, convenience, and quality. Instakart is really my business's saving grace, and maybe yours' too. Let us stay vigilant and fight COVID together!

They say millennials are entitled. They say we are too free-spirited and we don’t have long term plans in life. Aside from that, people also say that we are a little spoiled and only want the “good life” and the convenience that the world has to offer. Well, I’d rather look at it this way: we are the generation that is living between the age of the digitalization of things and the time before that. We know radios, cassettes, CDs and we are also familiar with how to use iPods, mp3 players, and now Spotify. We had to watch our favorite movies both by transitioning from DVDs to Netflix. In my opinion, we are actually the generation that enjoys the best of both worlds.
This can be the reason why we are more explorative of the types of lifestyles that we want for ourselves. We have experienced the world in a less advanced time and now we are in the middle of technological innovations all over the world. So, I guess, we are just being so resourceful and conscious of our decisions especially in the things that affect our overall health and mental state. For one, we are more cautious in choosing the kind of job we want to live with. We don’t want to be employees all our lives, not that it is something bad. But it’s the feeling that we want to be in control of our time, our life direction, and when we can take a break. Another thing is the food we eat. We tend to research more on the ingredients and make sure that we are eating healthy. That’s why a lot of food innovations have been made during the millennial years as they would call it. One of which is meal kits. I really love meal kits and this is because of two reasons.
Meal kits are just so millennial if you ask me. They are convenient. Yes, because it’s an in-betweener of taking out food and cooking at home. You get the ingredients delivered then you just cook it yourself which makes it both time-saving and an assurance that your food is safe because you’re the one who prepared it! Second, it makes me creative! As a millennial, we always love to DIY stuff and something that makes us express ourselves more. With meal kits, you can improvise and continue to add ingredients to make it more personalized.
If you’re like me who’s living in Davao, you can easily find easy to cook meal kits and even Davao baking kits! They’re all available in Malagos Homegrown Produce’s DIY meal kits. Check them out on their website now at www.malagoshomegrownproduce.com to try meal kits in Davao and get the millennial food you need!
