Original Note:
Balut does not signify a “bird being eaten alive”. It’s a food in Filipino culture, often seen as a delicacy. Balut is a fertilized bird egg (usually a duck) which is incubated for period, and then steamed. The contents are eaten directly from the shell. https://journalofethnicfoods.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s42779-019-0020-8
