Once, I did a bad bad thing.

A buddy of mine had started dating a lady whose family was from the Phillipines, and her father was very unhappy with the prospect of her dating a non-Phillipino. He refused to even speak to my buddy until about a year into the relationship, when he summoned my friend to attend dinner with the family.

My friend was nervous, so I told him if he really wanted to impress the girl's father, he'd ask for some Balut to show he wanted to fit it.

Well, my buddy forgot to ask what it was made of, and being the kind of guy he is, really wanted to impress dad and asked for several all at once.

About midnight that night, I got an angry call with tales of eating eggs with "little chickens" inside and "everyone watching" and how taking revenge on me would be sweet, etc. It was great.

Ah, sweet memories of Balut.
