Yes, it's real!. Though 'dead' should be changed to cooked!. You made it sound as if it was eaten raw!. It's not!. Contrary to popular belief, balut is not half bad!.!. if you've tasted it before!. it's like eating durian for the first time, either you like it or don't!. And there are more ways to eat it than just straight out of the shell!. There are some that fry in it batter and served with a light salad of cucumber, onions and vinegrette!.
also if you think eating a half formed duck fetus is bad, there is something called a "one day old chick", which is exactly that!. A newly hatched chick, deep fried!. And no, it's not sick, it's just what people from this part of the world eat, it's part of their culture!. You eat turkey and chicken, we just like them!.!.!.!.uhm!.!.!.younger!. *cough*Www@FoodAQ@Com

it's for real and it's a test of manhood in the Philippines, if a man can't eat balut!.!.!. it makes him a ***!. its uric acid and cholesterol content is way off the charts though, so people who eat balut every day are likely to have heart, liver, or kidney problems!.
for starters, eat it with salt and vinegar!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
