“Yung mga tao tulog pa pag umaga. Kapag umaga sumisigaw ng balut, e yung mga tao tulog pa so maingay, so sa gabi nalang (People are still asleep in the morning. If you yell ‘balut’ in the morning, it’s noisy),” Bugoy Drilon said.

Clarence Delgado, on the other hand, said, “Kasi po hilaw pa po sa umaga. Hindi pa po luto e (It’s not yet ripe in the morning because it’s not cooked yet).”
