    Super anecdotal: I once had a Filipino Catholic coworker with whom I went to lunch, and he considered balut to be meat.

          No, that’s ballot. The balut is the person who is paid to park cars at hotels and fancy restaurants.

            No, that’s a valet. A balut is that thing clowns use to make dogs and flowers at children’s parties.
