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.
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)
There’s a lot to unpack here:

Wait, do people just throw away the eggs?

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.
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.
