That Asian delicacy where the bird has developed inside of the egg and you spoon into it and eat the whole wet-feathery, soft-boned-and-beaked thing.

Ah, you're talking about balut. That used to be one of family's businesses. It takes a practiced eye to know when balut is ready. I think the benchmark is around 13 days.

I think another factor in my assessment of the goat testicles was that I had them at what was supposed to be a conciliatory dinner with my old boss, while we discussed the raise I had requested. I don't work there anymore, so there's that . . .
