i love balot so much. it doesn't matter if it's a big chick inside or something, as long as it is balot, i will eat it. i love it with vinegar and salt and chili. i think i can eat about 2 or 3 or more balot in one eating, especially when it's drinking session.

hmmmm, yummy! hehe so can you eat balot even with lights on?
i love balot but here in cebu, i have hard times buying a good one, unlike in my place i can just say to the vendor to give me a 'balot sa puti' and i will get a good one, but here, they are asking me the number & i don't have any idea on it! and now, its been a year i think since the last time i eat balot...
looks like you are a drinker my friend...be careful...do you take liveraid? hehe just kidding!
thanks!

of course, i can eat balot even with lights on... same here, i have hard times looking for a balot sa puti. i think, i never had a balot sa puti since i came here. and also in my hometown, it's so easy to find balot sa puti.

I wish I have the nerve to eat "Balot". My partner is so fond of eating "balot" but I really can't try. I love "penoy" but never balot yet though I am too curious on why people really love it. I just don't like to see it with "almost" whole chicks inside.

Well, I do eat balot because my mom asks me to because she said it is healthy to eat it sometime. But personally I don't like eating it specially if it already has the feather and the beak. But most of the Filipinos that I know eat balot. Take care ... happy every day =)

Yes, I like eating balot but only the yellow part. I don't want the bato and the sisiw. Well, my sister used to call me "Balot" because, according to her, I love eating it when I was young that I finished everything and only threw shell. I don't remember that anymore.

i love balot the 16 or 18 days old doesn't matter. like you, i also love to eat it with vinegar and salt. i remember craving for balot when i was 2 months pregnat, i wonder what had my child look like, i never had the chance to see my child because i had miscarriage after a week. but it's not because of the balot.

Yes, i like eating balot. It's very healthy and the sabaw tastes good. I eat the sisiw if its still small, but when it has its features, i don't. =)

I'm ahamed of being a filipina when it comes to Balut eating, am really so sorry but I really can't eat the "sisiw". once I tried after a dear friend, put it into my mouth, funny I swallowed part of it without chewing. From then on I never ever tasted Balut again however I have so much fun watching my friends eating balut...

Hi there Ckyera!
I like eating balut but only the yellow part. When I was a kid, I like the "sisiw" alot but when I got older, I get grossed out by it.

i love balot! i like it with vinegar and chili! i can eat up to 5 balot eggs without experiencing nausea. some people can't eat up to this number of eggs coz balot has high cholesterol which is bad for people with high blood pressure. so lucky me i can it up without having problems and yes it is very nutritious too. i guess the only part i don't eat is the hard white part which my teeth can't chew. haha

I do not really eat balot but I enjoyed watching my brother eating it. The manner he eats it, it is as is superbly yummy. I have tasted balot, but I am not really a fan.
