  ETAG Etag is the general term used in Cordillera about the native's traditional way of preserving pork. The etag can be eaten raw even if there are magots in it, it is edible but the etag that has magots is under process and the good etags has no magots. The process in making etag was a slab from a big slice of pork and rubbing salt in every part of the meat and also to prevent flies from landing on it before hanging. The process of hanging is either drying it under the heat of the sun or smoking it above a smoke from a variety of redwood, dried birch or using a branch of a tree which is called "alnus". Smoking requires a minimum of three hours to days until the meat is fully dry or dehydrated. Drying under the sun is also done to achieve the same purpose. The 'etag' has two types, the good etag and the bad etag. A good etag is given to occasions like weddings and birthdays and the bad etag is given to funerals. When smoked or dried, some just leave the meat
