stevestojan Posted January 11, 2005 Share Posted January 11, 2005 Did anyone catch last night's episode of fear factor? Something is wrong when you can gte fined for saying sh-- on TV, but Fear Factor is allowed? I know, I know, "turn the channel" - and I am just kidding, but did anyone see this last night? I really almost got sick watching it... "Balut, a Philippine delicacy, is an egg containing a fully developed duck embryo - "the treat with feet" as Joe once called it. Luckily (?), Joe would blend it up, but that wouldn't do much to disguise the rancid smell. Plus, there was an added element to the stunt. Each player would be harnessed to a large bungee while drinking their big glass of blecch. Upon finishing their drink, they would each hit a button which would launch them backwards off the side of the roof over a hundred feet in the air. The couple with the fastest time would win $10,000.

stevestojan Posted January 11, 2005 Author Share Posted January 11, 2005 My wife is Filipno and always told me if anyone ever asks you if you want Bault...say NO!!!! 201642[/snapback] Ok, here is an article about it.. now remember, this "egg" they are talking about is actually a 90% developed chicken embryo. (meaning there will be some bones and beak and feet, etc)... just how they describe eating it is sick... read at least the last paragraph.. http://www.asiacuisine.com.sg/Nacws/1998/9/314/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just Jack Posted January 11, 2005 Share Posted January 11, 2005 I've always said I could do well on that show IF they did not have to eat the sh-- they make them do. I do not watch the show just because of that. Since when did watching people eat disgusting things become entertainment? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry Tate Posted January 11, 2005 Share Posted January 11, 2005 After over twenty years of a combination of military messes and living off the Korean/Japanese/Okinawan/Philipino economies, I'm pretty sure there is nothing humans consume on a regular basis that I can't eat. Once, anyway. Maybe I should be the dietician for the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tux of Borg Posted January 12, 2005 Share Posted January 12, 2005 They need to take away all that safety equipment. Take the girl to the top of the empire state building, put her out on the ledge, and then cut her safety line. Now that would make for some good TV.
