A balut is a fertilized
duck egg with a nearly-developed
embryo inside that is boiled and eaten in the shell. They are considered delicacies of
Asia and especially the
Philippines,
Cambodia, and
Vietnam. Popularly believed to be an
aphrodisiac and considered a high-protein, hearty snack, baluts are mostly sold by street vendors at night in the regions where they are available. They are often served with
beer. The
Filipino and
Malay word balut(balot) roughly translates to mean "wrapped". -taken from
