I would like to add that laksa is seasonal, therefore it is not what you call a poop coz if they do it once a year then they might die of indegistation.

I have conducted a reseach to be sure that my data is correct regarding the issue of what you call “lukot.” I went back to Gubat, Sorsogon and interviewed those who sell it, and I discovered that; the one in your picture is called “laksa” and they claimed that it is a secretion from sea cucumber, the “liswa” is quite different because it is not secreted, you have to dissect a sea cucumber to get it. In addition, laska taste like bihon.
