Together with my partners-in-crime, we hatched a brilliant plan to get my unsuspecting non-Filipino friends to try the infamous Filipino delicacy. The grand plan was to introduce balut to them on Saturday night.
.
However, the eggs that were purchased for our dinner on Saturday decided to fight their fate and hatch instead!
.
So, instead of looking like this…
.
.
…our appetiser turned out looking like this.
.
.
How to eat??? So adorable some more, those baby ducklings!
.
Of coz it turned me off having balut for Saturday night’s appetiser. What a let down. 
I was hoping to share the experience with my friends after having tried it myself two months ago.
.
Oh well, at least my Filipino friends have a new pet now. In fact, THREE new pets! Coz of the 10 balut eggs they bought, 3 of them fought fate and hatched.
.
Was it a good turn of event? Or a bad one? I still can’t decide…
