Now, I know what you're thinking -- "Didn't I see that on Fear Factor once?" They did have duck eggs on it once and all I could think of was Vietnamese people happening across the channel and thinking they were on a Food Network cooking show. But once you get past the mental block, they are actually delicious. Think about it this way -- if you eat chicken, and you eat eggs, why wouldn't you eat something that was right in the middle of that process? Crack open the shell, drink the juice, slide the bird and yolk out together (leave the white part inside as it's too hard) on a small spoon, dip into a little salt and pepper... fantastic. I've eaten 10 in a sitting before and only stopped because there were other delicious things to eat. Excellent protein source, doesn't fill you up... you don't know what you're missing.
