Why Filipinos Love Lato (Sea Grapes)

Lato is a cherished delicacy in coastal regions of the Philippines, particularly in Visayas and Mindanao, where fresh seaweed is harvested from pristine waters. Often served with vinegar, calamansi, or bagoong (fermented shrimp paste), lato is a common side dish in seafood feasts and beachside gatherings. Its crunchy, briny bite pairs exceptionally well with grilled fish, fried pork (lechon kawali), and other classic Filipino favorites.

Filipinos also value lato for its health benefits, as it is naturally rich in iodine, vitamins, and antioxidants, making it a nutritious addition to any meal.
