Look at this description:
Century egg is a Chinese cuisine ingredient made by preserving eggs in a mixture of clay, salt, lime, and rice hulls for several weeks to several months.
Through the process, the yolk becomes a dark green, cream-like substance with a strong odor of sulphur and ammonia, while the white becomes a dark brown, transparent jelly with little flavor.

Erm.... I do eat century egg congee once in a while, so.... :lol: but that's the only way I'll dare to eat the century egg; I won't eat it alone or in a huge piece.... at least the egg gets sliced into bite-size when the bowl reaches me so the taste isn't THAT strong. I used to dare to eat pork liver, intestines and durian when I was a kid though; ironically, not anymore.... :lol:.

I eat century eggs in congee too since my mother usually adds these eggs when she cooks congee. But I won't eat them plain.

I totallY agree with your comment on the century eggs. EWW!!! If I went on the Amazing Race, I'd have my partner do the Roadblock -- but I'd have him do all eating Roadblocks, then again.

Please enough with the descriptions, I'm ready to puke just reading about them much less eating them. No wonder poor Claire is about to vomit, especially if she was already pregnant during that race as I' ve read in another post.

As a Chinese, this is a delicacy :lol3:
we all love the egg
It is really strange to see the participants struggle to eat the egg as we consider the egg as delicious.

I've recently been to one in Chinatown and most things they serve there are
not much like that, they don't reallly serve seafood... o.o
