Disturbed

So this morning I decided I'd make myself some pancakes and eggs for breakfast... since it's a reading day and all. And my roommate bought these brown eggs with Omega 3 that she offered to share with me. Anyways, to make a long story short, when I cracked the first egg to make my fried eggs... two yolk came out!!! I was very frightened. So I asked my roommate if that was normal for brown eggs and she said... no, it's just twins. Twins!??!!? Ew. Eating eggs has never freaked me out before because I never really thought about what I was eating, but let me tell you, I have never had my appetite be so spoiled as it was this morning at the thought of eating twin baby chickens. I ALMOST never wanted to eat eggs again until I remembered that you need eggs in things like brownies and I decided that not eating eggs would be bad, very bad. But still... seriously disturbed.

I wouldn't worry about it too much. Eggs are only going to be chickens if they are fertilized, and most farmers make sure that doesn't happen. So otherwise, it is just a bunch of protein that could have been a chicken if the right circumstances happened.

You are so funny! No, if you had cracked it open and there was a partialy formed duck (happened to me once) - with a duck egg of course - now THAT would turn anybody's stomach. We were incubating duck eggs, and some simply didn't hatch. So, taking the lightly baked eggs, one happened to open. not good. not a sweet-smelling experience at all.

I'm gonna leave a dead chicky on your doorstep and see if you get even more disturbed.
