Cheers for the pork brains, just about to eat my lunch 😕
even zombies would throw up at those 😕
Oh, dear Lord, I'm having a real problem not hurling all over my computer here at work, looking at those photos's. Truly, unspeakably gross. 😳

He got there in the end
Personnally cooked right/served correctly, I'd try all of those things, not rushing to try Balut though.
(Not suggesting I'd like them all)
😯 O..M..F..G... 😥
[i]Came across this delicacy in Asia.. Balut[/i]
What... why.. how... do you cook it??
Yarg.
Went for dim sum with some work colleagues a month or so ago, one of whom is from Taiwan, there were some eye openers ordered! The honesty of the menu was funny as well 'deep fried pig stomach/intestines.' Anywhere else it would be 'marinated and scorched pork tripe, served over..etc.' The waitress also made us laugh (nervously) when she brough over some pastries to try for free, describing the filling in broken english as 'pig inside.' We were left wondering as to whether that meant pork inside the pastry, or the insides of a pig...
I'll stick to my ethnically sourced hemp burger and a pint of dolphin tears thanks.
Is that chick in the egg thing real? Can't be
I'd try the chickens feet and I'd certainly have a go at eating the balut, whether or not I'd be able to once in hand is another matter...
for me, BALUT is the worse grosses food ever. nasty !!

for those who dont no, that is a hard boiled fertilized egg
I have eaten surstromming and lived.
On the same subject, this is one of the funniest blogs I have ever read.

Yup, I'd probably give the Italian maggot cheese a try, but the live sashimi is a line I couldn't cross. In oz once my uncle was doing scrambled eggs on the Barbie. After cooking he declared that perhaps a few of the eggs had 'developed', but put a bit more effort in with the whisk 😐
Yes, the balut thing is real.
