let me guess you're a filipino right??

Im not really a fan of balut but I eat some occasionally. When Im eating balut I really dont eat the whole thing cause I feel disgusted of its look. I only eat the yellow part cause for me its the only part that taste good.

I am twowizdom..lol..so you are? I remember every time I eat before it has to be in a dark place so I cant see it but it feels yummy indeed..lol

Hello checapricorn. When I was younger I couldn't even stand eating the chick. It made me sick whenever I look at it, but now I already have the guts eating it.


balut

myLot reputation of 97/100. checapricorn (7372)   ranked 346 out of 27,605 in life  7 months ago

wow...ericajoyce...great attachment..lol, made me recall those time..but, i ate them in dark b4..lol


myLot reputation of 93/100. ericajoyce (1087)   ranked 5,461 out of 27,605 in life  7 months ago

Thanks! When I was younger I used to eat it in the dark too so, I wouldn't look at the duck. I think people who dont like eating the duck eat it when the lights are dim.


myLot reputation of 97/100. checapricorn (7372)   ranked 346 out of 27,605 in life  7 months ago

correct..its just disgusting when you will see it...but if someone will give a try on "balot pinoy", ithas no chick yet! just eat the yellow part with old coke...lol

crymy wife is from the philippines and she tried to get me to eat balut but i refused..i was raised on a farm in Michigan but we always "candled" the eggs and would never eat a fertilized egg..but maybe if i grew up eating balut i would think about doing this..but my wife is not a strong balut eater either...her excuse is that its too expensive in the US to eat Balut.

thanks for the interesting question..and post..it is most interesting question..


myLot reputation of 97/100. checapricorn (7372)   ranked 346 out of 27,605 in life  7 months ago

I tried to force my husband to try too but he just cant eat it..lol!!!Have a great day asawako49162

My dad loved balut, so he would always have a couple of them every night. But I didn't like the look of it at all. I always thought it was gross to be eating the chick. He would give me the yellow part, and that was the only good part for me. When I was into ballroom dancing, my friends would bring a lot of balut with them. They say it makes the knees strong. I never had any, though. So you can dance much longer. But some say that too much balut can cause high blood pressure because it has lots of cholesterol in it.


myLot reputation of 97/100. checapricorn (7372)   ranked 346 out of 27,605 in life  7 months ago

I agree with cholesterol thing..Its true but to make one knees' stronger maybe it is..lol, when I was an avid eater before use to eat in a dark place and never ever stare on it..soo yummy truly but in the long run you cant deny there are cases you can really see the dark portion..makes me feel sick so i stop eating but "balot pinoy"..mere yellow and white..I still love it!!

7. myLot reputation of 94/100. sudiptacallingu (3146)   ranked 431 out of 27,605 in life   6 months ago

I have never eaten a balut as it is not an Indian food and being a typical street food, I don’t think any restaurant in India serves this under oriental cuisines. When I first came across the term balut here in mylot I was intrigued as many people praised it while many others loathed it and I of course did not even know what it was. I then googled for it and got to know what it is. Maybe it’s the difference in culture, but I am sure that I could never eat a half-grown chick like that ewwwww just not my cup of tea!


myLot reputation of 97/100. checapricorn (7372)   ranked 346 out of 27,605 in life  6 months ago

I understand sudiptacallingu,
I forced my husband to try it before but he never did! LOL, Good thing, I already stopped eating it but I still love egg once there is no......you know!


myLot reputation of 94/100. sudiptacallingu (3146)   ranked 431 out of 27,605 in life  6 months ago

yeah I know, even I love eggs but not with...heheheh

8. myLot reputation of 83/100. alexigne (649)   ranked 6,624 out of 27,605 in life   6 months ago

We have the same about balot. I started to eat that when i was fourteen, and now i am 27, i still eat but only the yolk or the red one. Not the chick inside. It's like that i can't swallow it anymore, but when i am low blood and lack of sleep, i really force myself to eat cause as long as i can prevent medicine i will. It can really boost my blood level.
I remember when i was forteen, i was so thin, then everynight, i eat balot and gain lot of weight and became average body.


balot

myLot reputation of 97/100. checapricorn (7372)   ranked 346 out of 27,605 in life  6 months ago

I agree alexigne! But, actually, I havent tried that big chick already! LOL, I always get 16 days before and eat it in the dark! It was very yummy for me before but now, I can't eat it anymore! Only "pinoy"


myLot reputation of 83/100. alexigne (649)   ranked 6,624 out of 27,605 in life  6 months ago

yeah, i didn't like that too. i choose the one pinoy called balot sa puti, which is the chick is not too visible. My mom doesn't like it either.


myLot reputation of 97/100. checapricorn (7372)   ranked 346 out of 27,605 in life  6 months ago
