Judy Ann Santos-Agoncillo became emotional over the expensive onions.
On August 22, via Instagram Stories, Santos-Agoncillo shared her sentiments over the price hike of onions.
“Sibuyas na puti!! Nakakaloka ka! Dati, kailangan ka munang hiwain bago maluha… ngayon, naiisip pa lang kita naiiyak na ako sa presyo mo!”
She posted another photo featuring her hugging a couple of onions.
“Pero dahil kailangan kita, kaysa mas kailangan mo ko, ha-hug kita at nanamnamin kita bago kita iluto… importanteng namnamin ka dahil 550 ka per kilo! Kalerks!” she captioned.
In July 2022, Santos revealed why her YouTube channel had been inactive for the past months.
She revealed that food recipes are recently getting higher, but not all typical Filipino families can afford it.
“Hindi naman sobrang busy. Ang hirap kasing mag-isip ng mga episodes especially kung ang pagtaas ng presyo ng bilihin ay napakalala.
“Ayokong hindi maka-relate ‘yung viewers sa kung anumang lutuin ang gagawin ko kasi parang napaka-unfair naman. Tuma-timing lang din naman ako,” Santos stated.
Santos-Agoncillo also explained that she wanted her audience to [still] follow her recipes as budget-friendly.
“After lang din ako roon sa reality ba. Eventually, gagawa. Gumagawa ako ng episode ng Judy Ann’s Kitchen ‘pag nabuo ko ‘yung sarili ko, ‘yung gusto ko siya, inspired ako kasi outlet ko ang Judy Ann’s Kitchen.
“Ayoko siyang tratuhing trabaho. ‘Pag trinato ko siyang trabaho, mawawala na ‘yung genuine authenticity (ng show),” she said.
