A balut is a nearly developed, fertilized duck egg that is boiled and eaten in the shell. Mostly available from street-side vendors here in the Philippines where it originated, it's now available throughout Southeast Asia as common everyday food. It is popularly believed to be an aphrodisiac, but since I've never personally had a need for such things, I have no need to try balut. Plus, I'm like you Dan, I'll barf if I get very close to this food, even though I see the vendors with them everyday calling out "Balut!"

If anyone wants to see images, you'll just have to Google that for yourself, I'm not going to sabotage my own thread with that!

Orthopedic surgery or orthopedics is the branch of surgery concerned with conditions involving the musculoskeletal system.

Hence, if you wanted to remove the hand of someone's body instead of your banana bunch, you might also be in the market for a de-handing knife.
