Even after something like ~15 years of exposure to XKCD, I still get one of 10 thousand’d
I guess I’m neutral good when it comes to eggs.
Nice
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.
We have backyard chickens. The huge one was a double yoker and delicious 😋
For a second I thought you had some kind of crazy triangular egg carton until I realized it was just foreshortening.
I had to read your comment to realize it wasn’t some cool home-chicken-owner egg holder.
Eegan bo beegan I’m vegan
2 ounces of plain applesauce is one egg for simple baking recipes
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.
I just bought 2 dozen for $2.78 each.
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?
Amateurs.

husbears?
Had to look it up XD Just regular papa and mama bear with cubs :)
Of all the things I could have been embarrassed about today I was not expecting this
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 0
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
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.
You at least have to keep it symetrical.
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.
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.
We use this thing instead of the carton.
Let me guess, European? Or at least not from US
Yes, European :)
But the egg dispenser is something I once 3d printed when it was still a hobby.
Can’t seem to find the original design anymore though.edit
Oh, I think it’s this one: https://www.printables.com/model/70036-fridge-spiral-egg-holderEuropean because we can keep the eggs outside the fridge
The design is very human
Bunch of rich people or non Americans on here.
