...1000 pennies MAYBE in some states. but in most asian stores in CA, it's only $2.00 sometimes 3 for $5.00

Of course! The balut TATE is probably from a duck that has appeared in Larry King Live, that is why it is so expensive! Or must have been part of a fundraising dinner menu for Hillary.

Yeah thats true because it's imported.
I can even eat Balut for free in Philippines, I got lots friends who are balut vendors in my place.

I don't believe it. There's a filipino store near us and they sell balut for around 60 to 80 cents.

that's robbery at it's best! well, they don't allow balut in the airport unless you pack them nice enough to go unnoticed.
i just love balut. i eat them once a day when i was in pinas for vacation. to hell with cholesterol =)

OmiGod! thats very expensive.
You know, thats what i find it strange so far. Why are Philippine goods too expensive? When I go to other countrie's native stores, I find their goods affordable.
