Will this mean the return of tha Baloot boys to the streets of Manila?
Every Friday you could hear their cries....Baaaloooot! BaaaLooot!
Balot is a ready to hatch chick which though meat is an egg and legal on Friday in heavily Catholic Manila.
I've heard that the capibara is also OK to eat on Lenten Fridays. It is basically a giant hamster but it spends most of its time in the waters of the Amazon river.
