American rapper Cardi B documented herself trying out the exotic Filipino delicacy balut (fertilized duck egg) for the very first time.

“Actually, before TikTok, I’ve been seeing this a long time. It’s called balut. I got it, let’s try it, and rate it 1 to 10,” she said while showing the balut on her plate, as seen on her TikTok page on Thursday, March 7.

The rapper continued to describe how the balut’s size was huge; that it may fit two yolks. She then cracked the balut open, put lemon and salt on it, and sipped the liquid. Cardi B initially gagged over the food’s smell but she covered her nose and went on to sip the soup.

“It’s so thick and hard,” she exclaimed while peeling off a part of the egg’s shell.

Cardi B tried the yolk then immediately spat it out, saying, “No. I don’t like it. I don’t like it.”

“It’s very meaty. It literally tastes to me like an uncooked chicken… Too much meat scent,” she added. “But the liquid it had inside was good.”

Giving her final verdict, the rapper revealed, “I’m not even gonna rate it at 1 to 10. I’m just gonna say it’s not for me.”

Most netizens found her video funny, with some even commending her for being “respectful” with her remarks. They compared her food review with how American record producer Benny Blanco judged the fare offered by a cult-favorite Filipino fast food chain.
