    Pretty sure that’s a US thing or maybe more regulated markets. I’ve seen videos of like street markets where a food vendor cracks an egg over their grill and a formed chicken pops out. They have to quickly flick them off.

      Balut (Aborted Duck eggs) is straight up a delicacy in my Mom’s home island and the island is mostly Catholic. So it’s an actual issue.

      It’s literally sold like ice cream on that island. Every street corner, the locals love it.

        I ate balut growing up and we don’t eat it at Lent as it’s considered meat. Tiny, tiny bird meat.
