Am not getting it, but to each his own, why some would feel slighted by the ad, unless one is not 100% proud of and secure about being 100% Pinoy. Bayo's ad to me is just an appreciation of the fact that half-bloods, or quarter-bloods, or 1/n -bloods (whether or not one can actually and scientifically, accurately compute the blood proportions) do exist among us Pinoys. Compare that with ads featuring 100% non-Pinoys. I 'Juan'der why that did not get anybody's goat or carabao, come to think of it, not even mine. Bayo's 'What's Your Mix' campaign, for me, 'Aprub'. Anyway, I'm having fun with the backlash, as usual, with the usual Pinoy netizen sense of humor, however one takes it :
-- Philip Philips --" 50% Singular, 50% Plural" or
-- “50% German, 50% Moreno/Shepherd" or
-- "Joffrey Baratheon: 50% Lannister, 50% Lannister" or
or my favorite --
End of story .. Thanks Pinoy netizens and www/bayo.com.ph for the pics in this post
and the previous.

What's Your Mix --- Bayo Campaign
I'm Filipino --- basically of the Malay race --- and as far as I know and can hazard a guess, I've got about 15% - 20% Spanish and based on my mother's maiden name, I could have a dash of Indian blood. And proud of it. So, I sort of connected to the new campaign of a local clothing brand which I patronize. The concept is good and kudos to the one who thought of focusing on this obvious fact (why , almost all the show-business personalities plastered in the giant billboards along EDSA and ubiquitous in the boob-tube are mestizas (mixed bloods) and turned it into a marketing concept. Another instance of the local mind going global . I've always thought that the Filipino blood mixes well with Caucasian ... it softens up the angularity of the latter ... Mixes well with others, too.
