Has anyone had a Jam (jelly) omelette?
I was like eww WTF when I heard it mentioned as a potential filling. I've always seen omelettes as a savory dish, cheese,ham,prawns that sort of thing. Just wondered if anyone had tried jam or anything else unorthadox.

Notte quite omelette, but eggs do taste good with sweet stuff: we used to make eggy bread at uni by beating eggs in a bowel and soaking slices of bread in it. Then you fry the bread until the egg is cooked and finish it off by sprinking the top with sugar.
Yum.
Although I'm more a fan of cheese omelette and bacon omelette now.

Likewise, my first reaction was "ewwww", but I like syrup on my sausage, so in theory, it has some merit. Except that I don't eat what a chicken fucks. Eggs, in and of themselves, are really repulsive to me. I will eat them if they are baked into something, like a cookie, but not by themselves. Even as "eggy bread" (or "french toast", as we Americans call it), the little white snot strings make me gag like a priest eating nun mung. How would you keep the jam or jelly from melting into a sticky mess as the eggs cooked? Wouldn't it tend to mix into the liquid egg before the protein clotted? Jam melts a lot quicker than cheese.
If anyone tries this successfully, and likes it, please give a review. I may need to poison someone, and I'll bet it would hide a multitude of suspicious flavours.

Eggy bread? Jelly omelettes? What you want are crepes.... super-thin french pancakes stuffed with either sweet (strawberry jam) or savory (cheese) fillings.
The secret to crepes is letting the batter "rest" in the fridge for at least an hour before cooking. this lets the milk soak into the flour, making for a light, delicious breakfast.
And you don't need a fancy "crepe pan" either. Any small (8") non-stick pan will do.
2 large eggs
3/4 cup milk
1/2 cup water
1 cup flour
3 tbs. melted butter
mix for ten seconds
let rest for 1 hour
If you make sweet, you can add a little vanilla, a little sugar, a little liquer, just a splash.
If you make savory, you can add herbs, garlic powder, etc.
Pour a 1/4 cup of batter into a greased pan and swirl. Cook until edges are dry, then carefully flip with a spatula. Keep finished crepes on a plate in a low oven until all are cooked.
Now add your filling and gently roll them up and bake for a little while until cheese melts, or jam warms up. For savory, add sour cream. For sweet, add whipped cream.
Crazy delicious.

Corn, onion & jalepeno omelette
Steak and cheese omelette
Salsa omelette
Taco-Bell omelette
Chesseburger omelette
Chili omelette
Chicken wing omelette
Gulash omelette
Spaghetti omelette
Chinese food omelette
I'm willing make an omelette from any leftover food available, fukit, any food what-so-ever, but I have never really dug the sweet stuff--I hear fruit is really good though.
Pro tip: meat is always a good choice, but avoid fish.
Pro tip 2: when using fast food, ditch the bread (substance) and lettuce.

I haven't tried jam in the omellete, but I've tried peanut-butter on the omellette. It's good.

I perfer eggs-over-easy.
The best is when you get an egg that wasn't taken from the chicken quite soon enough and there is a partially formed chicken in there.
mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!!!!!!
It's like winning the food lottery!
This occurs most frequently when you buy your eggs direct from a farm, not a store.

Balut.
Balut. That much-loved, much-maligned Filipino test of intestinal fortitude and damn manliness. To the Filipino, it’s the favorite stunt to pull on every whitey who states that they are indeed, a tough motherfuker (balut is ground zero for culinary nastiness).
Balut is, essentially, an aborted duck fetus. Instead of eating an ordinary chicken egg with yolk and all, the balut is already fertilized and ready to go, as it were, with an actual, healthy, living duck embryo (incubated up to 18 days in a hatchery). This is where, of course, the balut gets its notoriety, IT REALLY LOOKS LIKE A LITTLE DUCK, READY TO DON SAILORSUIT AND HAT AND ENGAGE MICKEY IN SOME DOUR SHENANIGANS!
Instructions for eating balut:
1. Boil water gently in a pot, and put the balut in it for a few minutes.
2. Untwist the salt and put it in a dish.
3. Hold the balut upright and, with the underside of a spoon, make a crack at the top of the egg.
4. Chip away pieces of eggshell with your finger until you have a hole about the diameter of a finger. (This could be bigger, it depends.)
5. Sometimes you'll see some kind of gauzy membrane. Pierce it.
6. You can peek inside the balut now and see broth. Is this albumen? (I always preferred to think of it as amniotic fluid.)
7. Tip the egg to your mouth and suck out the amniotic fluid.
8. Continue removing the eggshell. Depending on how you cracked it open, you may then see an undifferentiated mass of stuff that feels like slightly runny, soft-boiled egg in texture. Dip the stuff in the salt and eat it.
9. Or you may encounter a hard, spherical section that looks like a seed. Throw that away.
10. Or you may finally get to the jackpot: the duck fetus. You may pick it up by the head -- at which point the body unrolls from its fetal position and its little legs dangle -- dip it into the salt, and pop it into your mouth.
11. Wash down with a cold bottle of San Miguel beer.
12. Vomit.
Answers to frequently asked questions:
1. Yes, you can feel the feathers on your tongue.
2. Entering a pitch-black closet so you don't have to see it makes no difference. You can still smell the faint, slightly gamey, deliciously menstrual aroma. (Also see #1 above.)
3. No, the duck's eyes are closed.
4. Of course it's dead.
5. No, you can’t buy good balut in Canada or the United States, don't try to. One has to know a nice Filipino family with an old grandmother who lovingly crafts this poision for visitors.
6. No, you can't pop the whole thing in your mouth. To begin with, there's too much, unless you have a big mouth. You have to separate the balut into its component parts to appreciate it, and that requires reverent contemplation of the duckling, forever asleep.
7. Yes, it’s gross.

Baluts...
The ultimate test of manhood for US Navy Sailors and Marines on WestPac cruises.
Sadly, being stuck on the East Coast, I never had the honor. But I have heard the horror stories, and I have to admit that I think I could have gotten drunk enough to try it back in the day.
