We have been painting wood eggs, one per person, per year, for over a decade. Reuse them every year and every year the hunt gets longer.
Your 37 year old child: dad please we have enough eggs and I have to be at work in 45 minutes
You: YOU CAN LEAVE WHEN YOU FIND THEM ALL
Waste of food either way. I don’t know of hardly anyone that ate the eggs after dyeing anyway.
Edit: apparently I was surrounded by odd people that didn’t eat the eggs.
My family always did…
I don’t know anyfamily who didn’t eat most if not all of the died eggs after or around Easter.
i’m curious what regions people not eating the eggs are from. we always ate the eggs and so did everyone i know
No. No, they’re not.
Speak for yourself. My local church who does Sunday Easter was begging for financial donations and egg donations.
One of the “threats” was using potatoes or rocks.
They’re concerned because next year, the free egg hunt might be a paid event.
So when are we getting colorful flour sacks for children’s clothing again
There’s a lot to unpack here:
- This is going to be one of things future generations look back on like we look back at the Great Depression (I’m trying not to think about Great Depression 2)
- The whole trend (potato or egg) is just a waste of food. Always has been.
- Why can’t people just use the reusable plastic eggs? Bonus is you can put candy inside.
Edit: Okay, thank you. Apparently we just did “Easter Eggs” wrong growing up.
The whole trend (potato or egg) is just a waste of food. Always has been.
How so? Did your family just throw out the eggs after Easter or something? Because we always just ate them in the days after when I was a kid.
Wait, do people just throw away the eggs?
Usually, yeah. People will hide them for kids to find or they’ll sit out as decorations for a few days. By the time they’re done being “Easter eggs” they’re all kinds of nasty / spoiled. (American eggs require refrigeration)
That’s unusual. Not usual. People ate those eggs.
Bruh you hard boil them before you hide them.
They go right into egg salad/ deviled eggs after the game.
This whole thread is sending me 😂
…
You hide them THE DAY OF the Easter egg hunt. And you go round up the ones the kids don’t find after. No spoilage unless you miss one.
And you don’t just leave hard boiled eggs sitting out. If you want decorations you can leave out, you hollow out the eggs before decorating.
Seriously, this all sounds like a you issue. Who just leaves eggs out as “decoration”?
um. you eat the dyed eggs. did your family just toss em?
Boil em, mash em, stick em in an egg salad.
What an utterly embarrassing time to be an American.
Our historic legacy is going to be that of a fool generation that votes against our own interests and fails to stand up for ourselves.
George bush Jr. Columbine. Wall Street protests. TSA. BLM. George Floyd. OJ chase. Probably a dozen more if I had time to think.
My brain read this to the tune of “We Didn’t Start the Fire”
I was trying but ran out of creative juices.
