Balut in America

Balut in America

So this is what balut looks like here. In the Philippines fresh balut is grown on trees, hand picked by baby blue Filipino rabbits, and prepared by cute heavily-stuffed animals. In the United States balut hide behind frost-burned shrimp in 20-year-old freezers… and look like that up there. It tasted “ok” but there wasn’t alot of sabao (soup) and it was really small.
