Send this to a buddy who hasn't tried balut yet! 🐣

my filipino aunt told me that when she first ate balut with her family, they would close the lights just for her to get used to eating the duck inside. Now she's the number one eater of balut in our family. hahahaha

It has 3 parts and the bonus "broth"

The broth is basically like the amniotic fluid. Tastes like chicken soup and the most "tolerable" as most would say.

The egg white that has hardened and become rubbery. Most people discard it.

The yolk. The yellow veiny part. Tastes just like a hard boiled yolk but less crumbly and more wet.

The chick. Can be of any size depending on the maturity. The texture also varies with maturity. Can feel like from a small nugget of meat to a complete chick, bones and feathers and all but wet.

Me watching this video: Aw i feel bad for the duck baby, **proceeds to munch on chicken nuggets**

[sugarlyspikes]

As a filipino myself it feels illegal not to like balut. But i don't. I tried it once but never again. I feel sorry for the baby duck

I remember the first time they made me eat balut which they deadass told me that it was hard boiled egg. Guess what? The moment I opened the egg, I saw the duck’s head which scared the shit out of me.

I'm half Filipino and grew up with balut. The embryo scared the shit outta me as a 7year old and it still does

[grunjecat]

my fun way of eating this is that i drink a bit of the soup then add vinegar inside. i would softly shake the balut to mix w the soup and then drink it. tastes rlly great and u get to flavor the balut meat a little, but i usually still dip the meat in the vinegar

When I was pregnant in 2018, I had a strong craving for balut despite never having it before. I went to my local Asian market and bought one, brought it home and prepared it. Well.. I did look at it and I couldn’t eat it when I saw the little duck 😂 hoping to give it another try soon 🤞🏽

Be prepared for 1k people saying the same thing "they would not eat it" and "i feel bad by looking at it"

You're so brave to post this after the comments on that other video 😭😭

[Dr_Baizhu]

I can't imagine how vegan feel watching this lmao💀

[XxMASTERTOMxX]

My wife just brought one home I tried it for the first time and I loved it, it was delicious

[random.lyy.]

Half of the hate comments here are just straight up stereotyping East Asians and being racist 😭

[yorke]

I'm happy seeing this
You can say I grew up eating this when times were real hard. Just as you said it's like chicken broth me my mom brother and dad would enjoy this silently, and now that we're better of we still have this for it's nostalgic feeling and not forget where we came from. ❤️

I’m usually ALL for trying different foods deemed “weird” to some people. But this, brains, and eyeballs are the only thing I cannot bring myself to eat. I just can’t. I love trying new things but this is not one of them. I’m sure it’s super delicious but I can’t do it

[lolymop]

I struggle enough with meat and get grossed out when I see a vein or fat, but I'm glad you enjoy it and I'm happy you're sharing it with everyone! It really helps to normalize foods like this. And some people may see this and try it and learn they love it! I'm sure it tastes good.

If I had an option to eat Balut for 1 million, I would choose to be poor
