  1. What an epic Balut experience in Pateros!😋 I don't know if I should thank you for giving me all the duck hairs tho 😂

  2. Bruh, respect for trying all these different variations of balut, but FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS HOLY please do NOT cut into the chick!! You wanna take out the hard part, then eat the white part whole (or with the yolk). No one likes cutting the white part in half and looking inside. That's just gross. Again, eat it WHOLE don't cut it open lmaoooo. Itll be a much better experience 😅😅😅

  3. Abs-bault-ly not for me, but I'm sure I'd love it if i grew up on them 🙂

  4. it's frickin gross thats whst. I can not my friends eat it all the time n try to get me to eat it nope no way in hell I'll starve to death. no organs or blood if anything either. or entrails either nope

  5. I came from Philippines & I've never seen how they've cook into dishes Thank you Luke Martin for your visiting again the best vlogs for me as the info about baluts.

  6. Everyone says it's delicious but I fear the texture would make me gag !! Maybe the deep fried ones are easier to start with !!

  7. There is no way I could try Balut 🙈It just scares me so much. Your facial expression cracked me up haha.

  8. I’ve eaten Balut before. You know when you go to a farm and from the smell you can taste it? Balut tastes like a farm to me. Not my cup of tea. But more power to all of you who enjoy it. ❤

  9. Hahaha I can relate. I would buy balut, drink the soup (which tastes so good), eat the yellow part with a little bit of salt (just a little, no vinegar) and give the rest to my mom. I believe most don’t eat the white part because it’s hard. Balut is not that bad 😂

  10. My first job out of college was in a manufacturing plant and most of the line workers were Filipino, and those guys were just hilarious. I'd never heard of balut before and the way those guys described was like this: "get 3,4 balut, a big glass of beer…no need viagra man!" 🤣🤣

  11. I think I will just stick to boiled and fried unfertilized chicken and duck eggs, although the feathers did look tasty!

  12. I can eat all of them 1tray for less dan 5minutes with spicy vinegar and 2 500ml redhorse beer

  13. Balut is so versatile. I’m Filipino but I never tried the other version of balut dishes and desert. This is a fun and educational vlog, Luke❤

  14. Let's promote our local business men and business women….🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭

  15. Congratulations for passing the Balut test although FoodieMomma ate most of the hairy parts lol. You are now one of our fave vloggers. All the best🥰
