YOU WANT BIZZARE FOOD? WELL YOU FORGOT ABOUT THE "BINURONG KARNE" OF THE IGOROTS'. BETTER VISIT AGAIN THE PHILIPPINES AND I STRONGLY SUGGEST YOU TO GO TO TUGUEGARAO ??

Those complaining and saying the food are disgusting, there's a reason it's called BIZARRE. Why did you even click the link when you're just gonna say it's unhygienic and gross? LOL

the juice of that balot is more tasty if you know how to eat balot properly!!!

Amazing how this guy will eat everything. It's awesome.

saan na ang pinakbet

Those white worms are gross and they are not from coconut. Worms from coconuts are far more delicious than that and I've tasted one. It has its natural oil, its crunchy, the anus/tail isn't black and it has a very rich aroma when being fried. No need for oil thou :)
