It’s not every day when one can say “bagoong” (salted fish paste) has made Lingayen dance. Residents of this capital town partied on the streets on Thursday to celebrate its third Bagoong Festival. The event was launched during the time of the late Mayor Jonas Castañeda to promote the town’s prime product and tell the world that Lingayen is the home of the most delectable bagoong, said Sunshine Robles, municipal information officer.
