They're actually quite healthy

"Balut eggs are an inexpensive and easily obtained source of protein throughout Southeast Asia. They're packed with vitamin C and beta carotene, both of which are powerful antioxidants that help clean free radicals from your bloodstream and support your immune system. In addition, they contain niacin, riboflavin and thiamine, which help you metabolize energy. At 188 calories each, with only 14 grams of protein and loads of calcium, iron and phosphorus, balut eggs are a healthy addition to an adventurous diet."

Made alot of Filipino food last weeks

The second pic is nilaga with beef neck bones.
A stew.

Last pic is paksiw na patta.
It has hamhocks, fried plantains, and banana blossoms. On the side is something called tuyo.
It's a dried salted fish that you use like a condiment.
