Balut, the eggs with legs!

Aloha!
Short version - Balut - noway!
Pupu - once you get past the association with Kaka and learn it's meaning - is doable!
But I grew up thinking "Czernia" was like desert! - we pronounced it "Cud-nia"!

Mahalo!

Want to see weird food? Google Andrew Zimmern (Bizarre Foods). He has an interesting show about strange foods from around the world. Truly a man with a cast iron stomach.

Having grown up in a poor country we pretty much ate everything and some things you guys posted here were actually delicacies! [

All the mountain oysters I've ever met were from bulls but I suppose pig's would do as well. They sell the bull kind at KTA and J.J.s Meat Market in Honokaa. Wonder if rooster rocks are any good?
Blood - a opposed to blood sausage - is tasty. It generally shows up around Halloween around here.
How about opihi? Kinda salty and a bit chewy but tasty. Also good for bait if you aren't in the mood for eating it.
I wonder about tendons. I see them for sale and am completely mystified as to how they would be made tasty.

Balut
Pork Adobo

A friend offered me fresh opihi at MacKenzie Park, thinking I would cringe & be girly. As I was about to pop it in my mouth, out came the two eyestalks(?) so I gleefully chortled "HELLLLOOOO Mister Lunch!" and down he went. The look on my friend's face was priceless - somewhere between horror and shock. Was actually quite tasty - I was surprised that it tasted like butter! I only ate one though once he told me they were endangered. Is that true that they've been wiped out on all the other islands?
I'll get my Paris Hilton on the moment someone hands me Balut! EEEEEkk! I try to sit through Andrew Zimmer's show & just can't hack it.
