What's all the buzz about? Jollibee, diaspora marketing, and next-stage fast food globalization
Over the past two decades, the Philippines’ leading restaurant brand, Jollibee, has made significant inroads into America’s quick-service dining scene. While previous scholarship has charted the chain’s phenomenal rise domestically, few accounts detail the company’s growing international standing much less discuss its ongoing expansion into major American cities beginning in the late 1990s. In this article, I examine Jollibee’s continuing spread …

The Contributions of Economic Anthropology to the Political Economy of Cities
Urban anthropology's centrality within anthropology and the growing importance of urban areas to global modernity are reflected in the choice of the Society for Economic Anthropology (SEA) to focus its 2012 meeting and this journal volume on the political economy of cities. In this volume, we undertake two tasks. First, we emphasize patterns of urban inequality and political struggle that inform the distribution of economic resources and the ways…
The Incredible, Edible Balut
This paper provides a critical food analysis of balut. These popular Filipino street snacks comprised of partially incubated duck eggs with a decidedly liminal character have become increasingly familiar to Westerners over recent years thanks to their most sensationalized depictions in various genres of popular culture. A number of pertinent examples from Western reality television, independent film, post-grunge alternative rock, international pr…

Gender, Fast Food, and Nutritional Perspectives in Contemporary Philippines
Local health and foodways are exposed to new and problematic elements as corporate fast food becomes increasingly ubiquitous. A 2005 consumer survey completed by 160 college-age women and men in provinces in the Philippines elucidates how fast food is conceptualized and its effects mediated locally. Paying attention to intersections of gender and fast food amid ongoing rivalries between global (McDonald's) and local (Jollibee) restaurant chains, …
"Fast Food and Nutritional Perceptions in the Age of "Globesity
As the influence of corporate fast food expands outside of the U.S. and Europe, many of the health problems previously associated with Western eating habits and nutritional regimes are beginning to proliferate across the developing world. Significantly, their rise serves as a troubling indicator of the “globesity” that threatens to overwhelm existing health care systems worldwide. To better understand the role of fast food cuisine in this acceler…
SPAM and Fast-food “Glocalization” in the Philippines
This paper examines SPAM consumption in the Philippines within the context of glocalization. Specifically, it considers the ways in which this global product has been indigenized by Filipinos as both a commodity and a cultural symbol. Of particular significance is the emergence of SPAM within the country's burgeoning fast-food scene. The recent opening of a restaurant chain serving a SPAM only menu illustrates how a global product can be reimagin…
