Do you wash your eggs?

[Azbubu]

/yes, I’m expecting all the double entendres.

On a recent episode of 90 Day Fiance, Natalie (from the Ukraine) was washing eggs before use which Mike (American) found perplexing.

Natalie : In my country we wash eggs.
Mike : Over here we don’t.

I’ve always washed eggs before use but this got me searching for more info. Apparently eggs have a protective membrane (cuticle) over the shell which is why they can be kept unrefrigerated. In countries like the US, eggs are pre-washed, which removes this membrane and thus need to be kept refrigerated to prevent contamination.

Some sources do not recommend washing eggs before use since eggs are porous and washing them can end up pushing bacteria into the eggs.

Do you wash your eggs or crack them straight out of the carton?

I always wash my eggs when I shower.

Depends how much I pay the hooker.

For some reason he always refuses payment. I think he's self-concious about his moobs.

His eggs are free range. Always roaming from brothel to brothel.

Gotta. First it's chemical disinfectant, then bleach followed by soap and water. Oke is sweatier than Grant in a MyBB meet.

Crack them straight out of the carton.

abzob is very insecure about his little drop. He can get agitated if you mention his size, best not to get him angry.

What's the point of washing again? Your OP is a mess of babbalas ramblings and links.

Poll added.

The same reason you’d generally wash fruit or veg before eating, I guess. To prevent any possible contaminants on the shell from falling into the cracked egg, or something.

Yeah...getting cooked anyway so not a big worry and there's so little contact with the outside of the shell. Rare occasion I eat them raw I wash away the white under a tap anyway.

Besides, it's bad luck to wash away the chicken-poop signature on a shell.

Wot? Wash away the white? Do you mean you only eat the raw yolk?

Yup. This random text just stuck in my head:

Not the Egg-white and Not the ‘Bag’
Don't consume raw egg white. Egg white is comparable to the womb, ovaries and oviduct, containing the same substances as are produced in the human oviduct (which is enhanced by progesterone (avidine), respectively estrogen (ovomucoid));

- Avidine in raw egg-white de-activates vitamin B8 (biotine).

- Ovomucoid in raw egg-white inhibits trypsin, an enzyme that decomposes absorbed nutrients.

Might just be nonsense. Either way, don't really like the egg-white texture and taste raw anyway.
