Euleen Castro, known as &ldquo;Pambansang Yobab&rdquo; on social media, stirred controversy after posting a blunt review of a caf&eacute; she visited. In the video, she criticized the food and drinks, saying everything tasted bland. Her strong language and tone upset many viewers, especially locals from the area.
The caf&eacute;&rsquo;s management responded calmly, saying they appreciated the feedback but found her words too harsh. They reminded everyone that respectful criticism is more helpful.
Showbiz personality Ogie Diaz also chimed in, advising vloggers to be more mindful when reviewing food. He shared a tip from actor Enchong Dee that if you don&rsquo;t enjoy something, it&rsquo;s better to say it didn&rsquo;t suit your taste instead of calling it bad. Ogie warned that harsh reviews can damage small businesses and affect people&rsquo;s mental health.
Some netizens defended Euleen, saying she was just being honest, while others felt she crossed the line. The incident sparked a wider conversation about responsible content creation.
As influencers gain more power online, many believe they should balance honesty with kindness because words can have serious consequences.
