This is balut. It's a 11 day old fertilized egg that contains the partially formed embryo of a duck, surrounded by egg. It's a popular food in some parts of Asia. Balut is most often eaten with a pinch of salt, though some balut-eaters prefer chili and vinegar with their eggs. All the contents of the egg are consumed, although the whites may remain.
Steps to eating balut( if you ever want to...):
1. Crack a small hole on the more rounder part of the shell (if you hit a hard white piece, then you did it wrong).
2. Crack it a little more until the hole is the size of a bottle cap.
3. Sprinkle whatever what seasoning you would desired sip the juice.
4. Don't be afraid to eat the small little duck inside, just eat it like a boneless chicken thigh, dip the yolk in some lime juice and eat!
