If you make a living selling eggs, this won’t go over easy.

Business is scrambled at this point.

Nope, cholesterol, triglycerides and fasting glucose numbers were all well in the normal range.

“I probably eat at least 4 eggs every day.”

Amateur! I eat about 9-10 a day. Really. I’ve already died of a heart attack once, so I’m immune!

200+ Recipes that Use a LOT of Eggs

https://backyardchickenproject.com/200-recipes-that-use-a-lot-of-eggs/

My favorite, not included here is easy blender custard.

2 cups whole milk
1/4 cup salted butter, melted
4 eggs
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 to 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg

In a blender, combine all of the ingredients. Cover and process until well blended. Pour into a greased 9-in. pie plate. Bake at 325F for 55-65 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. Serve warm or chilled.

The flour precipitates to the bottom and forms a thin, moist crust.

Aldi’s 78 cents/dozen. We used to buy Eggland’s best, but can’t justify 3x the price.

I used to sell eggs for fun and little profit. I had the ‘Easter Egg’ chickens that laid the pastel colored eggs.

This was years before everyone had their own chickens at home. I would package them in a clear container with a cute sticker and tie it with a raffia bow.

The local liquor store owner gave me $2.50 a dozen, turned around and sold them for $5 and people begged him for more!

You’re selling the SIZZLE, Baby, not the STEAK! ;)

And for readers of this article, perhaps the cause is in this article you posted as a follow up. I’ve been eating eggs for 70 years and don’t intend to quit. And fresh eggs was always looked forward to by me and my fellow soldiers in the Army...especially after having had powdered eggs in the field.

We have a nice predator proof coop off the back deck with 4 hens. We get really high quality eggs.

On your way out of town ? ... as in driving across the Nevada border ? Or better yet ...Mexico ?

That’s cheating you know.

Oh, 1 more guess please ... an anarchist neighbor with boot leg chickens ?
