MANILA, Feb 4 (Xinhua): A retail store in the Philippines accepted onions as "payment" for select in-store items on Saturday as part of an onion-raising drive for a "community pantry" or food bank project.
A branch of the Japan Home Center accepts one onion in exchange for the customers' chosen item. "Every customer has a limit of three item purchases only. All collected onions will be used in our community pantry," the store said in a social media post, adding that "any kind and any size of onion are acceptable."
