For the love of gaia, try some cardboard. It literally grows on trees!
Before this post, I've never seen egg cartons that weren't just some sort of cardboard.
The cheapest eggs at my US grocery store are almost always in that awful styrofoam. Clear plastic egg cartons are really common too.
Just... why?
Surely it costs more than the cardboard, it's not like egg cartons are made from quality board, it's reconstituted 'crap' that's just enough to hold together supporting a dozen eggs.
OP here. Yeah, I don't know why either, but it seems most eggs in my area come in these plastic/styrofoam cartons. Not in 2 packs like my post though, I cut that out of what was an 18 pack, as a wallet to protect my money, obviously.
Plastic and Styrofoam are cheaper.
Maybe it allows them to stack more eggs on top of each other without shelves without as many breaking or something?
Not saying it's a good idea, just speculating why anyone would even think to do it.
Either that, or they just want microplastics in all our foods.. 🤷♂️
Let's see if they float!
They're hard boiled, so I might joke around with folks for the next few days or so...
They're not ducks..
Who are you who is so wise in the ways of science?
Hold. In a week you'll have $7
I will give you a really nice hat for the $5. Like REALLY nice
No sale, but thanks for the offer 👍
But it was worn by Mr. Werberjegermanjensen. He was #1!
LOL, just wait until tomorrow when I get out dressed in my best black clothes, including black trenchcoat and hat...
The chicken that laid the ~~golden~~ eggs.
Good thing you wrote the value on the eggs so even americas get it.
The entire plot of the Jack London story "The One Thousand Dozen" from The Faith of Men pivots on eggs being $1 apiece
Hard boiled currency.
