I've Never Thought That Eating Balut #16 is Delicious!

in food •  7 years ago  (edited)

I told myself in the past that I would never never eat balut, a fertilized duck egg. Encouraged by fellow steemians @ninyea, @itinerantph , @jassennessaj and @bellatravelph to give it a shot.

Yay I survived and it was good! Far from my expectations! hahah . My impression goes like I don't want to eat because it looks so yucky with all the feathers of the embryo and its form that doesn't look so attractive. I've learned from them that eating one comes in numbers. They said that balut #16 is the bestseller and mouth-watering, in addition, the embryo is still developing with this number so it doesn't look so unpleasant.

Currently, I am the urge to eat one could be for the seccond time? hmmm :P . So I decided to post and share my experienced! hahaha

Balut is one of the Philippine's street food. It is incubated for 14-21 days. Remember the higher the number, the more visible the fertilized duck egg is .

It looks disgusting, sorry to say.

Me too, before I feel like I want to throw up just imagining eating it. Now, one balut isn't enough. I guess sometimes, we just have to try new things, maybe the ones we hate now will be our favorite in the future. :)
