If I scrambled duck eggs and chicken eggs and had you bite into each, you cities probably tell the difference. A bit more odorous (not bad) and a stronger flavor.

However, if I scrambled up some duck eggs and served them to you without saying anything, you probably wouldn’t notice.

...a shortage of onions....

How many recipes begin with dicing/sauteing an onion?

I did dehydrate a bunch last fall just in case, but so far, no problem.

I had a source of these some years ago and I liked them. They wee a bit larger and the yolks were bright orange. But I found them more difficult to digest. I did have some other health issues at the time, so it may not have been the eggs.

here in the Philippines, the meal is rice and “ulam”, which is a soup/stew. Onions are used to flavor the stew in most cases, and there is a scandal because of the high price because it is via the corruption of the middle men

There has been a lot of importing of cheap onions from Europe and China (and often smuggling them in) that under priced the local crop, and caused a lot of local onion farmers in our area to go broke.

Now the prices are high, and the onion farmers can make a profit, but most of the small farmers are no longer there, so it is the larger farms making a profit, and of course the smugglers.
