Cuisine: Balut

For those of you who don't watch "Fear Factor" (I don't) and don't know anything about the Phillippines, "Balut" is a part of the national cuisine. It is a fertilized duck egg that is 17 days old. You boil it and eat the contents. A duck embryo (beak, feathers, feet) is contianed within along with a veiny (!) yolk sac. I would eat cockroaches ALL DAY LONG to not ever have to eat this.
