nilupak

What the hell is a nilupak?
I stood by the Pinoy cart yesterday for 10 minutes. I was busy staring at the nilupak (contemplating its fate) while waiting for someone to actually buy it. It looked like mashed potatoes and I like potatoes. Well, got tired and decided to try it for myself. It wasn't that bad. No diarrhea yet. I asked the lady what nilupak was made of but she didn't know as well.

So.. googled it. (Google is God) It's very much like the bisaya version - Nilusak but I think they differ a lot in presentation and taste. The ingredients are very the same though. Nilupak just doesn't taste anything like bananas. Couldn't find a trace. Puzzling.
