Food That You (Normally) Wouldn't Eat.

Balut = egg with fetal chick inside. My 13-year-old daughter decided she wanted to try these in honor of her Philippine heritage and her admiration of Andrew Zimern. We bought a dozen. She cooked and ate most of them. She said they were pretty good, but she didn’t ever want any again. I couldn’t manage more than a taste of the egg white. They need to be hardboiled, which she, unbeknownst to me, tried to do with one of them in the microwave without poking a vent hole in one end. While sitting in the living room, I heard a loud “BANG!” and a few seconds later, “What happened to the head? It disappeared!” And indeed, it had. The rest of it was glued in bits and pieces to the walls of the microwave. It was horrific.

It seems that the evil Durion has been upstaged.. that’s beyond foul.

This post itself is now in the top ten horrific things I have ever read on the intertubes.

At least balut doesn’t smell like 20 rotting corpses!

If I happen to survive a horrible global catastrophe, I would most certainly die of starvation as I will not eat anything mentioned above!
