My Second Q&A

If you noticed, in some blog communities like vox and LJ, they have these questions that bloggers can opt to answer when they have nothing to blog about.

I think this is what Rukia had in mind when she started creating her Q&As.

How it works? Link to her blog posts like what I’m going to do and then answer her question — and I plan on answering all her Q&As! :D

Q&A: What is the One Food Item You Absolutely Refuse to Eat?

So to answer her question: nothing.

I absolutely refuse to eat nothing.
I’m constantly trying out new food and I don’t think icky food will scare me. If I’m assured that it’s edible, I will eat it. Hahaha.

Looking at Rukia’s answer, one thing that she absolutely refuses to eat is balot.

Balot is a fertilized duck egg with a nearly-developed embryo inside.

This picture is a picture of what, my dear friends, we call balot.

It is quite a delicacy here in the Philippines and I have to tell you. It’s one of my favorites!

The yellow part is the egg and the hairy part is the duckling. Now. If you’re going to eat it, don’t pick at it and remove the duckling because I assure you, you will see the body of the whole dead duckling, which isn’t appetizing at all. Bite it and just forget that you’re eating whole small duckling. Lol.

Think of it this way, you eat pigs that are killed, so why not ducks?

P.S. What do you think? Should I create my own Q&As? After all, it’s a way of getting people to link to my blog and a chance for me to see other blogs out there? :) People should really learn how to link love, don’t you think? Besides, it might give those who don’t know what to blog about a chance to blog about something — anything! We should really keep the community going!

    I don’t like balot too. I can’t eat it. But I can eat an one-day-old! XD
    I like your idea about linking Q&As. Honestly I don’t blog often because I feel I’m boring the readers. XD

  2. privatepractice:hellokitty.com Says:

    One day old? There’s something bitter there! :/

    Really? So that’s one vote that I should also start my Q&A! Go answer Rukia’s Q&A! :P

    Oh no. I get goosepimples looking at the picture on this post.

    *shiver*

    It would be nice if you start your own Q&A!

  4. amethyst_lover:kuririnmail.com Says:

    Yay! So that’s two votes! (It’s really yummy, you know! So if you do end up visiting the Philippines, you might want to try it out :D)

  5. idaemilia:hellokitty.com Says:

    ah, it didn’t looked to cousy, but you have a point about the pigs. Are the egg cooked or so? or is it raw? Yeah! do an Q&A!

  6. amethyst_lover:kuririnmail.com Says:

    It’s cooked! :) So it really doesn’t have to be scary.

    Yeaaaay! That’s three.

  7. Cookie Says:

    Try eating balot blind folded. :)

  8. shadowcat Says:

    You know what’s funny? They made the members of Switchfoot eat balut during their concert here.:D

  9. amethyst_lover:kuririnmail.com Says:

    What’s with the balot blindfolded thing? Haha.

    And switchfoot? Woah. Did they like it?

  10. shadowcat Says:

    They had no choice.:P After Tim Foreman ate it, he went something like, “I’ll be honest: I don’t think I’ll eat one ever again.” LOL

  11. darkntwisty:hellokitty.com Says:
