What The BALUT Is That??? - Day 17
1:57 PM

WARNING-If you're a vegitarian or involved with PETA please read this blog enrty with CAUTION!!!!


One of the things i have been adventuring the most with in this blog is my taste buds. Some have been good while others...not so good!

This new adventure i went into blind, i was told it was something most people have not tried and that it would definitley be a FIRST! It started with a hard boiled egg which looked pretty normal, maybe a little larger than an average egg, but for the most part it looked edible! so i was thinking-"hell, i got this". UNTIL i cracked the nasty thing open and almost shit my pants! I was not expecting a leathery wad of bird to come flopping out, thats for sure!



Balut is a duck egg with a fetus inside, normally between seventeen to twenty days...YEP, RIGHT BEFORE FEATHERS. People in the Philippines eat these as a snack like Americans eat hot dogs! 
 The bones give the eggs a uniquely crunchy texture but, with enough salt it basically taste like an egg!

This took me a little and i freaked out pretty much the whole time but i can now say that im one of the very few who have and ever will attempt this challenge! Just please don't say the word 'Quack' around me!

A video will be posted soon!
