Oooo, look who’s so rich, they can afford eggs…
Nice
Normally like this, but we ate them all yesterday.Any particular reason for the markers on the eggshell?
It’s the dates they’re laid!
Id be cautious about using sharpies on eggs. The shell is pourous. It looks like you’re using a regular pen. You’re probably fine but we avoid out of an abundance of caution
pencil would probably work
I have 4 eggs left and they’re all right in the middle, 2 in the top row, 2 in the bottom row, to create balance in the flimsy container they came in.
I don’t use eggs like that, but my housemate does. Looks like they take em from the carton one row at a time, the carton currently looks like:
1 1 1 1 1 1
0 0 0 0 0 0Of all the things I could have been embarrassed about today I was not expecting this
Bunch of rich people or non Americans on here.
Why do companies refuse to tessellate their eggs?! You could have 3x rows of 3-4-3 for 10 eggs, 5-6-5 for 16 eggs or 7-8-7 for a 22-pack.
I’m assuming they want extra cushioning and don’t want the complexity that would bring. Maybe there would be issues where they would fall into each other’s pits and get stuck or smash into eggs beneath.
USA. I have a ceramic egg holder for my fridge. it holds 18 flat.
As an American, I can’t afford eggs. 😔
And even if you could, you’d get RFKitis
Saw someone buying eggs the other day and asked them what they did for a living
“Egg broker”
I saw the ridiculous prices just after whatever bill that passed made them more expensive. Have the prices gotten worse or stayed the same?
The eggs have gone back to 5 bucks a dozen where I’m at, at least in the store I was last in. Still haven’t bothered getting any recently, but they’re not at like, 8 or 9 like they were at the same store a month or two ago. Not sure if that’s a change in the bird flu situation or if they’ve just been pushed down with some kind of subsidy or something.
That’s crazy. I paid 2.80€ for 12 the other day. And that were the higher quality ones
Was 5 bucks a regular price in the US?
I just bought 2 dozen for $2.78 each.

I guess I’m neutral good when it comes to eggs.
Even after something like ~15 years of exposure to XKCD, I still get one of 10 thousand’d
Always eggs in the middle. Because when I pick it up I always want the center of the weight to be in the same place. If all the weight is to one side and I grab the opposite side I’m more likely to drop it. Yes this is how I live my life, by overanalyzing everything.
That’s the same reason that I do the opposite - I take an equal number from each end, so the remaining eggs are centered in the carton, so I’m never surprised by a carton that’s unbalanced in an unexpected direction.
I think we do the same thing. I meant I leave eggs in the middle I pull from the outside edges.
Ah… yeah… I see it now. I took it wrong.
And yeah.
You at least have to keep it symetrical.
I also over analyze everything, which is why I always remove my eggs from the right side of the carton.
The left side of the carton is always towards me in the refrigerator, and I also always have the left side towards me on the counter.
As a result my first grab out of the fridge is always the most stable grab possible.
The way I figure it is, the most dangerous time is pulling it out of the fridge when I don’t always remember where the eggs are and where I have to grab it from one end. I don’t want to be surprised by it being heavy away from me.
Once I have it safely in my hand, I no longer have to consciously think about how to hold it, as that can all be done unconsciously.
I have a wife and kid so I can’t guarantee it goes back in how I want it to. But it’s good you have a system.
Almost out, picking up three more cartons tomorrow from my supplier of eggs from free range, grass fed, goat harassed happy hens.
The cartons are usually whatever my supplier happen to have there and then. Pretty standard egg cartons as sold at the store.
I usually use pairs as it’s fastest to mentally intuit how many eggs remain that way.
Lol “goat harassed”, time stamped and everything lmao
A couple of goats share the same forest as the hens. And knowing goats, there’s bound to be some harassment involved.
