here are ten interesting fact you may or may not have known about eggs !!!1. Can't remember if an egg is fresh or hard boiled? Just spin the egg. If it wobbles, it's raw. If it spins easily, it's hard boiled.
2. Eggs also contain all the essential protein, minerals and vitamins, except Vitamin C.
3.The timeless question "is it safe to eat raw eggs?"
It's best not to serve raw or lightly cooked dishes made with eggs. The risk of food poisoning from eggs is highest with raw and lightly cooked dishes.
4. A hen can lay between 250 up to 270 eggs each year.
5. If an egg is compressed exactly at the two narrow ends, it would never crack or break ! egg shells are built to take that kind of compression, remember where it comes from ...
6. Eggs also are good for your eyes because they contain lutein which helps prevents age-related cataracts and muscular degeneration. In fact, eggs contain more lutein than spinach and other green vegetables.
7. The color of the egg shell is not related to quality, nutrients, flavour, or cooking characteristics. White shelled eggs are produced by hens with white feathers and white ear lobes. Brown shelled eggs are produced by hens with red feathers and red ear lobes. Brown egg layers usually are slightly larger and require more food, thus brown eggs usually cost more than white eggs.
8. A whole egg is about 3 tablespoons worth of liquid.
9. China produces the most eggs, at about 160 billion per year.
10. And to finish "what came first the chicken or the egg?" well chickens and their eggs both pre date human life by a few thousand years so we'll never know, but by considering that you need a chicken to make an egg...
anyways hope you enjoyed those facts
and look forward to chatting to you all soon
