Double Yolk!

Post by Kookaburra »

Wow! Last night, one of the eggs that I opened had two yolks in it! That was so creepy. Couple of questions:

- Are double yolks okay to consume?

- If my daily consumption is 4 egg yolks, and I encounter a double yolk, should I eat 3 or 4 egg yolks?

P.s. The double yolk egg is a caged egg.

In humans, thats a twin.
That was so creepy.
Twins are creepy too?

Sure.

These double yolks are rare, so that it doesnt matter.

I once found a double headed snake while hiking. It freaked me out so much I went home and contemplated the meaning of life and the universe. A double yolk, on the other hand, sounds like a bargain :D

We get double yolks quite often. But you'll probably won't find them that often in store bought eggs indeed; they are often bigger then normal, and therefore they can't sell them.
