Had never heard of that before. Embryonic eggs from the Phillippines sound disgusting but this is fascinating especially the texture of the white. Your analogy with amber fits quite well. Very interesting would probably try it. Lizard in Thailand turned out quite tasty in spite of my expectations so I like to experiment
Great article

It was a big lizard but turned into one of those delicious but very spicy Thai curries 😋 some local delicacy couldn't offend our hosts so went for it

Monitor lizards maybe? Hmmmm, now i'm intrigued. Had no idea lizards were eaten.

I think something like that. It was about a metre long and they said it was a delicacy there and is lucky so we couldn't refuse. This was in the south islands. I'm talking 1994 so it might be something protected now. Whatever it was it made me reconsider my previous conditionings with food

I bet it did!
Your definition sounds like a monitor... gorgeous animals, and very peaceful. First time I ever saw one was on Koh Lanta. It was crossing the road while I drove my motorbike. Freaked me out a bit to be honest. But I saw some again on beaches in the Philippines and lakes in Borneo, and yet never heard of them being food.
Let's hope it's a thing of the past.
