All I wanted to say was I watched Bizarre Foods/Andrew Zimmerman the other night and Balut completely grossed me out.

Does it really taste good?

So make it good, make it last 'cause it all flies by so fast

I don't remember how it tastes other than it kind of reminded me of eggs. That SM sure helped the flavor :P

I tried 3 eggs when I was here last year. I liked them very much, although I found them a bit dry. So have some water handy. Also what I did to educate myself about them is watch a YOUTUBE video (Just do a search on Youtube) and the eggs I had were no where near what was seen on those videos.
