The hustle and bustle of requirements took a backseat last September 17 (Thursday) as the PAFT (Philippine Association of Food Technologists) community gathered at the CHE Grounds for KaCHEstahan 2026! From good food to great laughs, the booth was packed with camaraderie, friendly competition, and pure fun.

The energy didn't stop there, on September 18 (Friday) PAFT SIGMA proudly joined the sea of gold and green, marching shoulder-to-shoulder with Team ANLAK for the 116th Unified Foundation Day Parade! โ›ฐ๏ธ๐Ÿ”ฐ

Here are some of the best snapshots (pitik) from our Thursday booth festivities and Friday's grand parade! Thank you to everyone who dropped by, marched with us, and made this celebration at the foot of Kalayo truly special. โœจ๐Ÿ”ฅ
