Also called a Century Egg. I visited Manila in 2003 and I was offered this local delicacy. One quick smell and I was off, quicker than a bride's nightie

Centenarian, I think century eggs and balut are different. Century eggs are put in straw and earth for several months. And smell very much like sulphur. It is Taiwanese/ Chinese. Balut are fertilised ducks' eggs, after a few weeks the embryo has grown. It is then cooked and served. Sometimes feathers and beak are present.

I've had it. My wife is a Filipina. Balut is actually pretty tasty. Just don't think about what you are eating... ;-)
