  Balut
by shintarojon
 
 

Balut - an unusual Filipino delicacy that needs a simple courage in order to appreciate the mystery behind its taste!!!

It is a half-boiled, fertilised duck egg. You can feel those crunchy tiny feet, beak, feathers and claws in your mouth but don' forget to put few drops of salt to make it tastier.

Huh, but why Filipino loves to eat "balut"???

Rich in energy as they say...but it also increases your sexual desire!!! True or not...eating "balut" will always be a part of our Filipino delicacy that can be bought during night times.

How about YOU??? Wanna try this "embryo" to satisfy your lonely nights??? Or to increase your strength in love-making? Or even to satisfy your curiosity about this irresistible taste? Try and have some fun biting those undeveloped tiny creature!!!

Review Helpfulness: 3.5 out of 5 stars
