EN: okra
The vegetable that divides the nation. You either love its slimy texture in sinigang and pinakbet, or you think it's an alien pod that has no business being in food. There is no in-between. It's the 'pasaway' but healthy kid in the bahay kubo song.
From English 'okra', ultimately from a West African language (e.g., Igbo 'ọ́kụ̀rụ̀').
A common vegetable in Filipino cuisine.
