Balut and Pizza!!



Well...i am a philippino now...i have done it all...ive been to manila, eaten with my hands, gone to the SM mall, and now have eaten BALUT!!!! Balut is a duck embryo that is stopped before it is hatched, and hard boiled. What you do is crack the eggshell, suck down the embryonic fluid (haha that is gross sounding...but it just tastes like chicken broth with no salt), and peel away the rest of the shell, pour some salt on it (very important...or you would taste EVERYTHING!!!), and chow the whole egg....as you can see, Matt took a bite off it, didn't chew it whole....check out its insides....mmm....now my turn...



Somebody took my camera and got this picture...really it looks funny, but i did enjoy it. The taste was fine, but the grossest thing was the textures of the duck in your mouth... yeh think about that one....the egg shell on the inside is pretty amazing...alright enough grossing you out...

Oh yeh and my pizza (first picture) was really good! That's it, it really wasnt about the pizza at all...i lied, sorry.... till next time!!!!!

  2. Balut is beyond disgusting... the people at PETA must cringe with each crunch of the tender young bones. Stop the hate crimes!
    Hahaha, just kiddin' bro, I applaud your bravery. I will NEVER eat it.
