who eats "balut" here?

let me guess you're a filipino right?? Im not really a fan of balut but I eat some occasionally. When Im eating balut I really dont eat the whole thing cause I feel disgusted of its look. I only eat the yellow part cause for me its the only part that taste good.

balut? or balot? well if its a egg from pateros well i eat lots of it everytime i visit public market in pasig. there are so many egg vendors there on the streets. i dont know how much it now but i do love the kwek kwek eggs with vinigar.

I thought Balut Penoy tastes better because I love eggyolks. But the last time I had a balut penoy it was a crap. I like penoy with veins around it as it is tastier. I do love balut but I think chicken balut is better. I don't know why they always make duck balut in the Philippines. Now, I miss that tasty balut here in the UK. But when I get home before this year ends, I will surely request for chicken balut and penoy.

Hello checapricorn. When I was younger I couldn't even stand eating the chick. It made me sick whenever I look at it, but now I already have the guts eating it.

hehehe.. i was never a fan of balut... i tasted it i think once.. just the broth and i didn't like it.. plus i hate to see the baby chick cooked that way... we used to have lots of chickens, i mean roosters here at home.. my dad and bro's pets... they use it for cockfighting, and the chicks were so cute... so it's difficult for me to see them in a shell like that, lt alone eat them...

hi te...balut? hmmmmmmm..... i eat the yellow one, i threw the duck. but since i got here, i don't missed it... but i missed bulad, monggos, ocean fish, malungay ang bisayan foods...

Eating balut is an acquired taste, I guess. Whenever I buy some, I always ask the vendor to give me "balut sa puti" which has a smaller chick inside still wrapped inside a white membrane. And what I do is I close my eyes whenever I get to the chick part, dip it in vinegar and salt and chug it down.

My dad loved balut, so he would always have a couple of them every night. But I didn't like the look of it at all. I always thought it was gross to be eating the chick. He would give me the yellow part, and that was the only good part for me. When I was into ballroom dancing, my friends would bring a lot of balut with them. They say it makes the knees strong. I never had any, though. So you can dance much longer. But some say that too much balut can cause high blood pressure because it has lots of cholesterol in it.

hi.... well, i only like the yellow yolk part...LOL...

Me!I can eat4 in one sitting

hi am not sure what balut is so am asking for some help here. Sounds like so sort of meat or fish perhaps and no I do not think I have ever eaten any.somebody give me a clue here.thanks.

I do, it tastes good especially the yellow think ang the liquid thing. hehe. But not the chick, i think i you eat the chick you would feel its beak and other hard parts when its in your mouth and when you try to swallow it. Its really a pity for the chick, it just doesnt feel nice chewing the chick in your mouth. hehe.. :P

We have the same about balot. I started to eat that when i was fourteen, and now i am 27, i still eat but only the yolk or the red one. Not the chick inside. It's like that i can't swallow it anymore, but when i am low blood and lack of sleep, i really force myself to eat cause as long as i can prevent medicine i will. It can really boost my blood level. I remember when i was forteen, i was so thin, then everynight, i eat balot and gain lot of weight and became average body.

I do, I do! =) I love balut. Although I don't est it as much asa I used to anymore. I like to eat it with salt and spicy vinegar. It's sooo good. There are time s that I eat the whole thing but only if the chick inside isn't yet fully formed. But when I can already see the beak, legs - I don't eat it anymore only the yellow portion. ~

I still eat them, but I prefer those which are freshly served and still hot. I remember one time, as I spent my summer somewhere in Batangas. Every 2:00 in the afternoon, an old man with a basket would walk the place where we'd spent the afternoon. He sells balut, hot and fresh. We'll then wave at him, buy three to four balut for me and my uncle, we'll chow down at it even if our hands get burned at those hot shells. The vinegar sauce is good, along with salt too.. But I never really buy those cold one's, I'm not used to it and I find it disturbing..

my wife is from the philippines and she tried to get me to eat balut but i refused..i was raised on a farm in Michigan but we always "candled" the eggs and would never eat a fertilized egg..but maybe if i grew up eating balut i would think about doing this..but my wife is not a strong balut eater either...her excuse is that its too expensive in the US to eat Balut. thanks for the interesting question..and post..it is most interesting question..

I DO! lolz. ^_^.. During my teen age I eat all of the balut. I eat first the 'sisiw' then the yellow, I hate the hard bit of it which is the white one. But now I can't really eat the 'sisiw' now for some culture changes. hahaha... I love the hard bit now ^_^ and that's i eat. I seldom eat the sisiw nalang! hahaha.. I enjoy my balut with vinegar with chili!!! ^_^

Yes and No. I eat balut but not all of it. I only like the juice that comes out of it and the yellow part of it. The yacky part, no way. I can't even look at it. That is why, I would eat balut with a spoon. so that I will be able to scoop out the yellow part and get rid of the rest.

i still eat balut when i have time to do it, i want to eat something different or exotic... :)
