Among the YouTube channels under Chicken Pork Adobo was Kids' Toys which was launched in May 2012 and was currently the network's biggest channel. Also part of the network's content creators are Lloyd Cafe Cadena† who became popular in social media because of his funny videos and memes about love, school, as well as pop culture parodies, music artist Daniel Ian, actor Xian Lim, actor JC De Vera, actress Melissa Ricks, former Rugby player and comedian/host Eric Tai, and artist manager and tabloid writer Ogie Diaz. Another channel under the network was The Soshal Network[1] starring three lawyers with entertaining commentaries on how to become a socialite and Plump Pinay by Cai Cortez who advocates of being comfortable of your own body.[2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] Also part of Chicken Pork Adobo was Kitchen Queen (later renamed as Chef Liza) of Liza Diño.[8] As of August 2016, Chicken Pork Adobo had over 300 content creators.
