At night, the streets in the Philippines are trekked by these vendors selling balut, a 14-17 day old incubated egg either from ducks or chicken.
Nowadays, balut is paired with steamed peanuts usually so for those drinking beer and alcohol drinkers. The vendors themselves have evolved from carrying a basket full of balut to a more convenient mode of delivery, the tricycle.
They actually make some good money from this business alone sending kids to school until they finish college.
But I just eat them.
