Attack of the Biker pigs.

No, not Miss Piggy's evil twin.
It's the piggy festival on St. John's day in Batangas.

Hundreds of succulent, roasted pigs decked out in colourful costumes were paraded in the festival celebrating the sainthood of John the Baptist.

The pigs, known as “lechon” in the local language, were placed on motorized floats as residents soaked each other in water to recall the baptism of Jesus Christ.


If you don't have access to an entire suckling pig, try this LECHON RECIPE instead:
