Any one know about the Muslim definition of "Balut" which is a Filipino snack food, it Halal?
I was in Philippines several times, Beautiful country and indeed the best beaches in the world, Interesting people, Delicious cook and street snacks and one of them is "Balut". I got to see a lot of Filipinos that the food and also tried it but was not sure about the meaning of my religion Islam, if its Halal or Haram because it Duck poached egg with baby (developing baby duck) inside. I will appreciate if someone would help me here so I can have this next time).
slm alykm jazza kallahu Khair for seeking knowledge before venturing to unknown or doubts when I heard on the radio from a udstadz who said he read or heard any teaching about balut if it is classified as halal or haram. but he said he eat it because it is still considered one egg and one can not bleed the egg or the chicken. but consider the street food, check first where they fry the food you eat. As for example, are fried with fishballs Kikiam or pork sausages with the content thereby making cooking oil contaminated with pork. Also, the food in the Muslim restaurants, such as Chowking, or any Chinese restaurants that serve meat, do not eat any food from them as they contain loads of non-Halal monosodium glutamate, and The noodle soups, though they are chicken or beef mami noodles contains soup boiled with pork in it as their secret ingredients. ask yahoo ramadan section or Muslim websites to get another opinion. wslm.
