Full Version: Who among you have tried eating BALUT?
Isn't that just ducky..
I used to eat balut as a dare back in college, but the last time I have had it I was feeling something "beaky" I almost puked. My husband will not try it, so much for fear factor adventures!

Sorry, but 2 things I just can't do: Balut and Bagoong.
Hey! They're eating balut right now on Survivor China!
All I wanted to say was I watched Bizarre Foods/Andrew Zimmerman the other night and Balut completely grossed me out.
Does it really taste good?

On my last trip to the Philippines I ate the Balut. I ate both the 16 day old and the 18 day old eggs. I have been known to ahve a cast iron stomach...lol. Other than the crunchy bones it is relly good.

I tried 3 eggs when I was here last year. I liked them very much, although I found them a bit dry. So have some water handy. Also what I did to educate myself about them is watch a YOUTUBE video (Just do a search on Youtube) and the eggs I had were no where near what was seen on those videos.
my husband saw that episode from Bizaare Food about Andrew Zimmern eating balut. he finds it appalling.
i've had balut before i even realized what it actually is. i haven't had it for over 20yrs now..

I was once asked by my SO , he ask why are we eating dead chick? and I answered why they were eating uncook foods LOL.. I was just joking at him to make it even...
