Description

Filipino delicacy consisting of a fertilized developing duck embryo, boiled and eaten from the shell with salt, vinegar, or spices. This protein-rich, zero-carb food aligns perfectly with ketogenic macros while offering exceptional nutritional density from the combination of egg yolk, white, and partially formed duckling.

Pros Cons
Zero carbs, extremely nutrient-dense, high in protein. Strong acquired taste, ethical considerations for some eaters, limited availability outside Southeast Asian markets.
