Hmmm... is that with or without; er... gravy, that is? http://www.zachmoreno.com/travel/25/eating-balut-in-manila-phillipines/ http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/travel/holiday_type/food_and_travel/article3552377.ece http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/5371500.stm
^ that shits tastier than it looks.. lol.. reminds me of Dave Chappelle eatin' a dinosaur.. damn.. would be interesting to see the lizard clone itself.. but for lunch.. damn.. i dunno about that..
Although Chinese people are known to eat a variety of foods in their diet.. Balut is more of a cuisine in south east Asia, not CHINA
This thing is called "balut" and it's actually good. I still eat it every now and then especially during the winter season. Different area has different way of eating it so yeah it's not as bad as it looks. Filipinos love it a lot. Anyway, back to the story about the lizard serving at the local eateries. I am not surprised at all that is occurred in VN since people are poor. However, I am shocked that it mentioned Ba Ria - Vung Tau area. These are tourist places and both of them have grown considerably since my last visit. I imagined you find such stuffs in Chau Doc or the central area. Weird. Nice to know and thanks for sharing. I don't mind trying it the next time I hit town. I don't gross out easily since I am used to the living situation in most poverty places.
