Oooo, look who’s so rich, they can afford eggs…
Nice
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.
I think the combination of strong foreshortening, the unexpected extreme size differences of the eggs, and maybe the half carton many of us are less used to, makes this the eggbox version of one of those ‘mystery houses’ where things are warped in sone strange way that it fools you into thinking things roll uphill and such.
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
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.
We don’t have one.
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?

I guess I’m neutral good when it comes to eggs.
