I grew up eating Balut so I love them, I think it's an acquired taste and a lot of people can't get pass the thought that it's a developing baby chicken/duck that they are eating. |
I always see people eating them at this one Viet mall's food court and they don't seem to have any of the "fixings" but plain! I think I've only seen the duck ones bc the shells are bigger and quite thick. I don't really mind knowing what it is, just one of those things that I've never had, so not too sure about it. If you were to eat one in front of me, I would join you, but to buy one by myself, probably not.
Are you Vietnamese? What part of CA are you in?
