Mmmm…yummy.
My friendly hosts took me out for a local delicacy called Balut. It’s a baby duck embryo in the egg. O.o
Mmmm…yummy.

Hi Philip, I am glad you’re enjoying your stay in my home country. You are a brave man eating the “balut”. I am your mom’s neighbor here in Lexington, SC. Take care and travel safe. Have you tried the “chocolate pork” yet?
Hi Rey!
Thank you for watching my video and commenting. ^_^
I haven’t tried chocolate pork yet, but I had chocolate with sticky rice for breakfast 2 days ago – it was really nice!
Hey Philip. This is Rey. Remember me? I am your Mom’s neighbor across the street from her home in Lexington, SC. She told me that you’re in Manila, Philippines, wmy birthplace.
I am glad you are enjoying your stay. Filipinoes are friendly and hospitable people. Balut is one of my favorite delicacies. You are a brave young man. Take care.
Ooops! Sorry I posted twice. I thought the first one did get through.

hello, glad to see you enjoy your trip.
there is ‘happy egg’ in china that is very similar to balut. I think it’s a baby chicken in the egg.
Hey Erika!
Thanks for commenting. ^^
Yeah – that was a kinda crazy night, but good to see a different side of local life here.
Have you ever eaten ‘happy egg’?
I’ve eaten ‘happy egg’ for many times. They are at different stages. Some are more like eggs and some are more like chicken with a lot of feathers.^o^
