It's the tiny threads you see when you shred chicken for arroz caldo. It's the fiber in mangoes that gets stuck in your teeth. In hugot terms, 'yung 'huling hilatsa ng pasensya' (the last thread of patience) you have for your ka-talking stage na hindi ka na nireplyan.
From Spanish 'hilacha' (thread, filament).
Commonly used in cooking to describe shredded meat (e.g., 'hilatsa ng manok') or in textiles.
