A netizen named Czar Villanueva took a picture of Jollibee making a delivery along Lacson and Dapitan intersection.
The mascot is a well-loved figure among kids and kids-at-heart. Its creator Manuel Lumba said Jollibee’s design is a mix of western and Pinoy influences.
“I began to draw: if Disney had a mouse, why couldn’t I have a bee?” he said. “Then I added a chef’s hat to suggest quality food, a red dinner jacket with a vest to boot, white gloves that reminded me of Disney characters, and taking inspiration from Tony Velasquez’s Nanong Pandak comic-book character, I exaggerated the cheeks.”
Jollibee’s CEO Tony Tan Caktiong chose bees because they are “hardworking” like a typical Filipino.
“Bees, by nature, are hard-working insects who always strive to get honey or the sweetest things life could offer. And just like a typical working Filipino, bees are happy even though they’re busy,” Tan told The Economist.
As Tan described, Filipino netizens found something “jolly” about the picture: Jollibee’s ‘traffic violation.’
“Dapat hulihin at ticketan yan kc may violation,” a netizen quipped. “Driving without helmet.”
