balut

i havent try to eat balut even though i am here in the Philippines, i dont want to see the chick inside of it with feathers, etc.

oh my god , i love balut, it makes me crave now when i hear the word balut, it really taste delicious, some of the filipino are afraid of eating it, but believe me, try it and then you'll ask for more...

oh balut is almost anyone's favorite in the philippines, but i never dare to eat one, seeing that poor chick inside with few feathers and some liquid make me puke. just looking at it doesnt make me hungry anymore.

I assume you are a Filipino like me as only Pinoys are fond of eating it. For those who are not familiar with balut, it is a fertilized duck or chichen egg with a nearly developed embryo inside that is boiled and eaten in the shell. It is a common street food in the Philippines and usually eaten with a pinch of salt. My husband really loves to eat balut and can finish 4 in one sitting. He will not eat supper when he ate that though. You will feel giddy when you eat too much of that. But it is popularly known to strengthen your knees and for those people who got low blood level. I do not like to eat balut as I cannot stand the almost developed chick inside though I must admit that the liquid on the shell is really tasty. I can eat only those white part and the yellow part of it but not the chick.
