Tasty. Juicy. Evil. It’s given. Not many foreigners would even get close to this delicacy. It looks safe from the outside, but dangerous on the inside. Who would have thought about boiling an under-developed duck embryo and eat it afterwards? They say this delicacy originated from the Chinese way back the history of the Philippines. It doesn’t really matter. I like balut and I don’t even know why. Would you dare?
I miss balot so much. My husband, a foreigner, wouldn`t even taste it. Just a look at it made him scrunch up his face. I say he`s missing a lot by not even trying it. I miss Pinoy foods so much >-<
