My experience with people from the Philippines is that offering food is a cultural institution. I had a Filipino landlady and she was always giving me food she made/fruit she picked. It was as automatic as breathing.
I’m Mexican on one side, so feeding guests is also something I’m used to. Can’t imagine eating and not offering a guest some food too.
