First of all I have to say that they tricked everyone into this! They called up 10 people all from different countries to volunteer. As soon as the Baluts showed up one of the guys ran. I thought, what the heck. I love a little competition, especially if its a dare to do something that everyone thinks is gross. So I took the poor guy's place.

In the end, Charles from South Africa and yours truly tied in a Guiness Book Record challenging very few seconds. The prize? A first edition Every Nation Umbrella. Wow. I was shocked and blessed at the generosity of the missions office. =) Unfortunately, the prize did not make it to being the FIRST EVER Every Nation umbrella in India. Didn't fit in my suitcase and looked too much like a weapon to be brought on board the plane.

How was the balut, you ask? Well, it tasted fine. The secret seems to be found in one single sentence.

Whatever you do, do not look at the bird.

Wahahaha! This is hilarious! Check out Pastor DK's face!!! He looks like he's about to throw up! He's the one wearing the orange Sold Out shirt! timecode 00:50

Good job, Joy! Go mighty balut-eating woman of God! I can empathize. I joined a tart eating contest for our cheerleading team once...against the other coaches. I had to compete against men while wearing a formal dress...I was on my way to a wedding~! I lost though. Those tarts are dry and hard to swallow! neuff neuff.
