Pinoy Big Brother (PBB) has a storied history of food-related drama that turns the house into a pressure cooker of emotions, and with the current PBB Celebrity Collab Edition already poised to be a major television event, fans are already anticipating similar chaos.
Drawing from iconic moments in past seasons, here’s a look at unforgettable food clashes—and a glimpse at how this season’s celebrity housemates might follow suit:
Charlie Fleming’s Chicken-Throwing Chaos (PBB: Celebrity Collab Edition, 2025)
Just days into Celebrity Collab Edition, 16-year-old Sparkle artist Charlie Fleming, dubbed the “Bubbly Bread Teener ng Cagayan de Oro,” sparked a slight commotion in the house by allegedly throwing a piece of chicken, which prompted fellow housemate Klarisse, and house guest, Ivana, confront her over issues on food ration and respect. Paired with Star Magic’s AC Bonifacio, Charlie’s act—whether playful or petulant—ignited a firestorm, with housemates accusing her of disrespecting the older members of this edition’s housemate lineup. Social media erupted on X, with fans split: some called it a “diva tantrum,” while others defended her youthful impulsiveness. As food issues escalate, this could be the season’s defining drama—proving celebs aren’t above a poultry-powered meltdown.
Kit Thompson’s “Gusto Ko Sumabog” Meltdown (PBB: Teen Edition 4, 2012)
Kit Thompson, then 15, unleashed the iconic “Gusto ko sumabog, magsabi ng mga masasamang… mga words!” after a food dispute turned hunger into hilarity. His “hangry” explosion remains a fan favorite. With Celebrity Collab Edition’s egos rivaling appetites, Charlie’s chicken chaos might just be the appetizer—imagine a bigger star topping Kit’s outburst over a missed meal.
Bea Saw vs. Maricris Dizon: The Rice-Washing Fiasco (PBB: Season 2, 2007)
A tense spat between Bea Saw and Maricris Dizon escalated when Maricris, flustered, washed rice repeatedly—multiple times—before cooking. This quirky detail turned food prep into a battlefield, delighting fans. In Celebrity Collab Edition, where big personalities collide, a kitchen showdown over rice or sinigang could easily find its way on top of the shows’ most memorable food-related dramas list.
Chicken Drama in ‘PBB Gen 11′ (2024)
Last year’s PBB Gen 11, a massive hit, gave us a juicy moment when housemates clashed over chicken—who got to eat it and who didn’t. The confrontation highlighted how food scarcity ignites territorial vibes. Charlie’s chicken toss, or any similar drama for this matter, echoes this tension, but with celebs accustomed to VIP treatment, the stakes feel higher—will adobo be the next casualty?
Gwen Apuli’s Overeating Sparks Tension (PBB: Otso, 2018-2019)
In PBB Otso’s teen batch, Gwen Apuli ruffled feathers by overeating, prompting grumbles from housemates. Her appetite became a hot topic, exposing food-sharing woes. In Celebrity Collab Edition, another food-wasting act might inspire a star to hog the snacks—say, a pile of chicharon—reigniting this friction with a glamorous twist.
Chips Cause a Rift (PBB: Otso, 2018-2019)
Also in PBB Otso, adult housemates bickered over potato chips, proving even small treats can spark big drama. Portion control turned into a power struggle, leaving fans amused. With celebs collaborating (and competing) this season, a major food-related drama could foreshadow a diva-level standoff over a snack stash.
Baron Geisler’s Drunken Food-and-Drink Chaos (PBB: Celebrity Edition 2, 2007)
Baron Geisler’s wild antics at a “Boracay beach party” task—fueled by an open bar and party food—disrupted the house, with kissing sprees and Kuya-cursing chaos. Evicted after a second boozy blowout, he showed how food and drink can spiral. A tipsy tantrum over cocktails and canapés could still rock Celebrity Collab Edition.
Teens Get Hangry (PBB: Lucky Season 7, 2016)
In Lucky Season 7’s teen batch, Edward Barber and Maymay Entrata bonded over hunger pangs during food-limited tasks, their grumbling a relatable highlight. While Celebrity Collab Edition features stars, not teens, Charlie’s stunt suggests scarcity might push a celeb to a dramatic “I’m too famous for this!” moment.
The Stakes Are High in Celebrity Collab Edition
Food is PBB’s secret sauce for drama, amplifying the stress of 24/7 surveillance. From Kit’s rant to Gwen’s munching, Bea’s rice saga to Gen 11’s chicken squabble, these moments—still buzzing on X—prove it’s more than sustenance; it’s a spark for raw TV gold.
In PBB Celebrity Collab Edition, with its celebrity pairings twist and Charlie Fleming’s chicken-throwing incident already making waves, and causing a divide among housemates, fans are primed for more food fights. Will a collab cooking task flop? Will someone hoard the lechon?
History—and Celebrity Collab edition’s early food-driven stirs—says the kitchen’s where the real collab—and chaos—will happen.
