Get the Yolk?

Kramer- if you really want to know the difference between a woollies egg and a just laid egg- I am offering a dozen free laid on the day eggs on the condition you go home and fry or poach up the fresh
next to the store one and tell me you don’t notice the difference in taste and texture and look.
A store bought egg will usually flatten out with a
runny white while the fresh one – esp free range will hold firm in it’s white and the yoke will have a wonderful colour and the taste will be so obviously better.

I had a person phone me the other day asking if she could buy double yoked eggs from me. I replied”well don’t know what you are going to get until you break one open.” Certainly none of my 100 free rangers have been genetically modified to do such a thing. However, the young hens do naturally produce quite a few double yoked eggs on their first laying season. Pullet eggs seem to have more twins. And this is the case from my own experience and further research since I had that phone call.

Actually, I would need to make an eggstra stop to picku my eggs…

I buy my eggs from woolies because they are so much cheaper than anywhere else, and I’m happy with the quality. Otherwise I would need to make an extra stop to buy eggs and pay a premium price – that’s why.

>>We are working our way through
>>a carton of 800g Woolworths brand eggs
aaarrgghh!
why on earth would you buy eggs from woolies
why not, simply … buy local and … eat fresh!
have to be better result for everyone here, no?

Well, as a final update we ended up having 9 double-yokers out of the dozen! But I agree that BT must be right – although Woolworths doesn’t seem to stock anything above 800g but perhaps you can buy 850+g elsewhere?

Punning is not all it’s cracked up to be (it can become foul), although I take a shell be right attitude to those who deliberately scramble their English.

A double yolker would probably contain c. twice as much cholesterol

Stop poaching ban puns from elsewhere.

You don’t find them eggciting?
