7 Egg Dishes, From Octopus Eggs to Ostrich Eggs | Around the World 

I genuinely don’t want Great Big Story to close. I don’t want to go back to watching “Insider”

Sorry to hear that you’re closing down , wish you guys best of luck

“The egg tastes a little bit eggy” -this guy

I just like how he cooked the egg in front of the ostriches

That guy has a lot of balls cooking ostrich eggs right in front of several ostriches

Great Big Story: yet another 2020 casualty.

Fun fact: salted duck egg is pretty common dish in all of south east Asia, and some countries uses more duck eggs than chicken eggs in terms of cooking.

Salted duck eggs are pretty popular in Indonesia too, so I guess chinese brought them way back when they came to Indonesia.

Kind of sad you guys are closing down. I wish the best of luck to all of you amazing people, that have helped cheer me up through the years. It was kind of abrupt for me to watch the last video and realize at the end what the title meant, and I was in disbelief because you guys don't seem to be in any financial struggles, but now I see that Covid-19 has kind of struck your channel in an impactful way, and you guys help spread the culture, and if you can't travel anywhere, you cant share that culture, so I appreciate what you guys have done for this platform. Best of luck! :D

I love the contrast between the first and second one. South Africa: OSTRICH EGG. Sausage, onions, tomatoes, spices, OSTRICH EGG, boom. Done. Feed 10 people. Taste buds? Satisfied. Hunger? Non-existent. 😎 France: Like 5 pieces of 𝓢𝓷𝓪𝓲𝓵 𝓮𝓰𝓰. Served with things you've never heard of. $95. Pay up.

Can never comprehend the French's obsession with snails, u had all these animals around but looked at that slimy snot looking mess and thought woah let's eat it AND ITS EGGS..

0:50 i wish she said "eggpisode"

I'm so sad to let you go

Hundreds of ants crawling everywhere Casually picks them up with hands

The ostriches watching this man cooking be like: *Hmm.... smells yummy!! Wait.... THAT'S MY CHILD!!*

Ant eggs are sweet

Of course French food has to be minimalistic, small portion, and "fancy"

"egg dishes can be found in every corner of the planet" i sometimes wonder how many corners a circle has

So sorry that Great Big Story is gone, but happy you’re continuing a version of it on your own!!!!!

Here in the US, we use Emu eggs quite a lot in the food industry. Especially when it’s in a setting where there is a cafeteria type situation. There are several good emu farmers in the US and they’re actually quite easy to find and purchase from, and they end up being a cheaper and a more nutritious option to chicken eggs. I’ve worked in two cafeterias where we used emu eggs on a daily basis. We used them for baking as well as for typical meals. They’re especially nice when you have an omelet station, because you can beat up two eggs and keep them in an iced pitcher...they’re also great for French toast, quiche or frittatas. When you have to make 200 loaves of enriched breads....like challah, or 100 sheet cakes and 500 cupcakes they’re also extremely convenient. ✌🏻🥰😊

Cool eggpisode Beryl! 👏🏽🍳 Did you know that Ostriches have the biggest eggs of any bird? They weigh around 2kg each, which is over 20x the size of a chicken’s egg. But in relation to the female’s body weight, these eggs are the smallest in the avian world. Side fact: The female alpha does have a staggering survival strategy for her eggs. You should check it out, it's really smart!

"Joined by my puppy-" Why did I think that the first animal egg on this list is a dog's egg?

Whenever this girl does a video it's so wholesome

"The egg episode" Damn girl... Why didn't You call it The eggpisode

Wait I was reading the comment are they shutting down? If so I’m gonna miss it so much please don’t go. If this shuts down I hope it will come back soon, we will miss you great big story.

I'm Indonesian though, but I'm scared to try that egg-tea 😅

In our country, here in the Philippines we have a speacialty in egg dish. We called it "Balut" a fertelized developing egg embryo and then boiled. It is common as a street here in the Philippines

Duck eggs, my parents and I appreciate it in a different way. Laguna, Philippines has this speciality we call 'balut', it's a duck egg with the chick developed but then put to boil for hours. Exotic but very tasty. Just wanted to share it.

Sigh. I just found out from another GBSer's video, that GBS is gone, which is a terrible shame. Are you going to continue with you're own RU-vid channel? I find your videos among my favorites.

“The egg tastes a little bit eggier” wow

my favourite character was Fujiwara, he just seems so joyful

Im crying this channel has given me a memory i will never forget this isnt just a company this is a society of humanity

When you are bilingual and try to focus on what the person's saying as well as the English translation.

"we're closing down. but hey... eggs!"

Thumbs up for catan in the background. Besides that, total quality journalism. Respectful, no dubbing and very international. No US centrism. Wonderful.

The way she laughs at her pun is just so wholesome

I just found out my mom has been feeding me ant egg

I was really surprised to hear my mother tongue 🇱🇰 He is correct this dish is really popular dish among everyone cause is affordable

The Gentleman serving the octopus eggs is great. I would eat there if I could. His passion is very obvious and he WANTS to show people this dish. Really cool. He also seems to really respect the octopus.

Whoever thought of eating snail eggs first really captured some niche..

Please don't stop your show Beryl! It's quickly become one of my favorite series on all of RU-vid! I'd be so sad to see it go!

God: I hope human peacefully coexist with each other and animals Humans: *today we're gonna eat a snail egg*

It's amazing to see how different creatures' eggs are eaten around the world and how people lavish on them on certain ocassions or on a day-to-day life, appreciating the taste and richness of the nutrients they provide. Here in Nagaland, North-East India too, ant egg dishes are savoured with love and appreciation for its richness. We also eat bee larvae cooked almost the same way as ant eggs besides honey. I'd love to try the different eggs introduced in this video, sometime in the future. Great work, team Great Big Story! 💕

A million times more interesting & unique than Food Insider! Great narration too 👍

It would be nice to include the Balut from the Philippines in this video. It’s a fertilized duck egg that is boiled or steamed. It’s a common street food in the Philippines and deserves to be included in this video.

Imagine a sunny side up with an ostrich egg 😂

Really miss the stories this channel told....truly hoping to see more from the team once we're fully out of the terms of this pandemic.

2:42 I think I've found Eren's siblings.

Looking for the “Balut” lol 😅😂😂😂

I personally have ate a ostrich egg it’s amazing I lived in South Africa for 4 years.

Loved this story

GBS makes me feel like i learnt something Cool and important everyday and i found myself smiling after watching your videos.

Plz, don't go!

Cracking an ostrich egg in front of ostriches. How brave you are 🤣

The vegan teacher over hear like “My baby’s”😂

everything looks amazing! i dislike eggs myself but bet that all of these taste amazing! love learning about other cultures and their food

But why are you shutting down GBS??

Even though this is one of your final episodes i'm really happy you guys covered Sri lankan cuisine at last.

“Nest up let’s go with the smallest, snails” So ants are bigger than snails now? Evolution man, I tell ya.

7:30 Not only tea, in Indonesia 🇮🇩 we also drink milk with the duck egg yolks, the drink is called STMJ, stands for Susu (milk), Telur (eggs), Madu (honey), and Jahe (ginger). And it is suuuuppeeerrrr delicious 🥛

You have an inaccuracy in translation when he gives the price of the escamoles, it’s not 10,000 pesos it’s 1,000-1,200 pesos

0:26 "Every CORNER of this planet" wait, that's illegal

2:31 i love how he says "Bird" and it turns to the camera

Great big story: 7 unique and interesting egg dishes from around the world Philipine balut vendors: hold my halo-halo

This video was eggcellent, it cracked me up alot Pls don't delete this comment

MUCHAS GRACIAS POR EL VIDEO!!ESTA MUY INTERESANTE !!! ME GUSTO MUCHISSSSIMO!!!!

I enjoyed the diversity of this.

I will miss your truly well researched, respectful, well produced stories. I can't think of any big channels who do it like GBS. For whatever reason you had to close down, I respect that. But we need you.

I was hoping you could include 'BALUT' a delicacy here in the Philippines

Wow! Extremely educational. Awesome documentary

Through much of this video, it's a white font on a white background - brilliant!!!

Kudos to the ant egg harvesters. All those ants running around and biting their hands 😱😱😱

Meanwhile people in France enjoying their snail egg caviar.

her: egg dishes can be found on every corner of this planet me: earth has no corners

Ostrich Egg breaking was fantastic job done!!

This can be the new start of GBS, hope this isnt the end

HOWTOBASIC WANTS TO KNOW YOUR LOCATION

Me: *thinking balut (fertilised duck egg) is weird* France: hold my escargots

The Jack Fish Egg curry is something that every Sri Lankan has probably had at least once in their lives. My grandmother makes quite the bomb-ass curry :P

These excellent videos are bitter sweet. Gonna miss GBS. Damn.

In Sri Lanka, we eat quite a lot of fish eggs from different kind of fish... but, as the chef said, jack fish has the most delicious and easy to cook eggs. Anyway , thanks for adding our little country to your list.. 💝💝

I guess you can say this is an eggcellent episode.

The ostrich egg one I’ve been to that farm many times it’s a really nice place and ostrich eggs are really cool

Noooo. I love GBS. I've been binge watching your channel while in self-isolation. You guys have kept me sane while in quarantine. And the quality content is unmatched!!!! Really sad to hear you go. 😭🌼 But thank you for such good content as always. ❤️

Finally seeing Sri Lanka XD I'm soooo excited XD

This was a eggcellent video :)

THE DOG!! Since i have your attention now. The cute dog's name was "Asha". It is a Hindi word that means Hope. ❤️

I just saw the other video stating that GBS is closing and totally heartbroken.

Is there a possibility that GBS will come back once/if funding comes through again?

teh talua is the best comforting warm drink i usually get when its chilly

I like how when the guy was talking about octopus eggs, there was a lady in the background just staring at the camera

Why did she said egg episode why not eggpisode

I'll miss you guys :((((

F for one of the best Channels out there. So sad to see you go.

Much love from Sri Lanka 🇱🇰

That board game collection is excellent :)

Salted eggs are so amazing!
