➡I accidentally bought Balut eggs: 2 live ducks! Now a Chat Thread!

Was there any indication they were uncooked? I thought by definition balut is already boiled. It would be a bad surprise to open one raw, and to allow them to die and sit prior to cooking them doesn't sound great either. I read up a little on it. Although the thought of it is very, very squicky to me, so many connoisseurs consuming them for the "tasty" broth and delicate meat probably aren't wrong.
I'll get back to you.
 
A few drops of melted candle wax will seal that up. Birthday cake candles preferably, the wax melts at a lower temperature.
I take a lighter to a birthday candle while holding it over the egg?
