FIL: Anumang bagay na ginagamit sa pagdundot o pagtusok. Sa modernong gamit, ito ay tumutukoy sa panghimagas o pagkaing kinakain pagkatapos ng pangunahing pagkain.
EN: dessert; poker
Two meanings here! First, it's the stick you use to get the last piece of chicharon from the bottom of the bag. Second, and more common now, it's another word for dessert. After a heavy meal, you need something sweet "pang-panundot" to complete the experience, parang chaser.
From `pan-` + `dundot` (to poke lightly). The 'dessert' meaning is a more modern, colloquial evolution.
The meaning "dessert" is more colloquial but very common. The original meaning is "something used for poking."
