To identify the three key influences on Filipino food culture, we need to examine the history and cultural interactions of the Philippines. One way to find the answer is by researching the historical influences on Filipino cuisine.

First, we can eliminate Germany, South Africa, Australia, Mexico, Nigeria, the Netherlands, Japan, Russia, and Saudi Arabia since they are not historically significant influences on Filipino food culture.

To determine the correct answer, we need to focus on China, Spain, and the U.S. These three countries have had significant historical and cultural influences on the Filipino food culture.

China: Chinese influence on Filipino cuisine dates back to ancient times when trade and cultural interactions occurred between the Philippines and China. Chinese immigrants introduced various cooking techniques, flavorings, ingredients, and dishes that became integrated into Filipino cuisine.

Spain: Spain colonized the Philippines for over 300 years, and this colonial history greatly impacted Filipino food culture. Spanish influences include the introduction of ingredients like tomatoes, potatoes, corn, and various spices. Spanish cooking techniques, such as adobo (marinating and stewing meat), also became popular in Filipino cuisine.

United States: The U.S. influence on Filipino food culture is a more recent development. During the American colonial period (1898-1946), American-style fast food and processed foods were introduced. This influence can be seen in the popularity of fast-food chains like McDonald's and Jollibee in the Philippines.

Therefore, the correct answer is China, Spain, and the U.S.

The correct answer is China, Spain, and the U.S.
