Yeah, Maybe after spending a week where Glen Morangie is processed!!! LMHO

And you need to hope the egg is done perfectly or the beak might be a little crunchy too.

I suppose the easiest way to explain it is a half rotten octopus with all the slime and mucus still clinging to it. Of course a duck egg is more than a bite so you have to masticate the little bugger into a small enough glob to swallow it. Then go back for the left over bit and clean out the shell.

Barfing after the event is instant disqualification.

That would be like eating while anesthetized. That would be considered cheating as well.

In Filapino tradition, true Balut wouldn't be rotten...it would be an incubated egg, preferably duck, and warmed in boiling water for about 2 minutes.

Yes you need to take the fluid and partial contents in seperate "bites", no doubt, it's not for the weak, and I have no way of knowing if I could do it, but I will never know unless I try

And no way will I eat one sent to me through the mail

[Al Lewis]

Coward!!! ROFLMHO I'll ship it overnight!!! I'm in tears!!!

[Boulder]

Nice try bro!!

You and I both know they have to be eaten immediately after the 18 day incubation period, done properly and warmed properly. I have no desire to be sick for a week, LMHO!!

Okay then, I'll let ya off this time but when the eel bread comes in you're getting a loaf!!!! LMHO

[Boulder]

Eel bread?? Sounds interesting, I've had eel, never had eel bread...

[Al Lewis]

The way it was explained to me many years ago you start with a 55 gallon drum full of water and small eels. You light a fire under it and let it heat up. Then you drop dough balls into it and when the water starts to get hot the eels burrow into the dough balls to escape the heat. Finish cooking the dough balls and slice them and it kinda looks like pimeto loaf with eels instead of olives. Evidently these people do not get the Food Network!!!!

[Boulder]

Ya' think we could bake the bread afterwards? Add a pat of butter and voila!!!

[Al Lewis]

Not sure how they finish it but I don't want the slice with the head or stomach in it!!! LOL

[exciter900rr]

Okay- all the eel bread and embryo's aside, Heres my attempt at the "Jap-a-leno" entry.....

Pretty sad last flight for me today, as My engine burped a bit after a rather long KE spin followed by a upright spin, finished with a waterfall- guess it stirred up the half empty tank enough to put a good size bubble in the lines. oh well, I was completely stalled, and closed the throttle, and pushed the nose to dive, but I was about 75 to 50 feet off the deck when the offending burp happened, and even though I knew I didn't have sufficient airspeed to pull out, the ground persuaded me to pull up early...

I was gonna do the vid in flight, but well,.... yeah... here it is.
