Here is the deal I drove up to my dad's house to give him a helping hand with a down tree.
My mom was cooking pancakes and sausage for the kids I decided to make a sausage and egg sandwitch. So I grab two eggs out of my moms egg carton crack them open to see a creamy whitish yellowish center they call an egg. I took one look and said ewwww Im not eating that that egg dont look right, LOL
I guess Im used to my deep orange yolk. I didnt offend my mom and didnt say anything out loud and I still ate it but wished I had one of my chickens eggs.

I then kinda chuckeled to myself thinking Im a egg snob LOL

Why yes, I am an egg snob now, too. But just think of all the money I save now because I never find myself wanting to go out to breakfast any more and spend my hard earned cash on those pale, nasty eggs!

i guess I'm an egg snob, even though my girls just started laying in December. So Wednesday I took my car in for an oil change at 8:30 am and the lady intaking my car recommended the "Stable" cafe around the corner to kill an hour and eat breakfast. I walked around the corner thinking, gee, I'm going to pay to eat battery eggs when I have fresh day-ranged at home. How silly is that.
But it turned out that the cafe is affiliated with a farm, and they had pictures of their chickens up on the wall- a welsummer that looks just like mine and what looked like some gold-laced wyandottes and maybe barred Plymouth rocks. The eggs were great, served with fresh asparagus and salami. So the snob was happy.
 
*I plead the fifth.*

Okay, okay, I'll talk! Quit throwing those store-bought eggs at me. Sheesh! YES!! I'm an egg snob! Happy?! In fact, I am SUCH an egg snob, that I turned up my nose at another friend's eggs from her chickens! (I know, REALLY bad.) I didn't approve of the color, the evenness, the texture of the shells. And she was mortified when I wanted to waste one to inspect the yolk.

Wanna know the worst part? Are you sitting down? I might eat an egg from my girls once or twice a year. I prefer to give them away or cook those beautiful orange yolks for others to enjoy. I can make the best folded eggs with fresh-picked wilted spinach, tri-colored mini peppers, fresh ginger, sprinkled with farmer's cheese.

I'll "waste" dozens of eggs teaching friends how to make a simple, but 5 star restaurant quality poached egg better than the restaurant -- and hollandaise . . .

Yep, an egg snob and a hypocritical one that doesn't eat them.

Yeah it's amazing how they can sell something that doesn't even look like a real egg inside.

It's like they added water! uck!
 
I have not bought eggs from the grocery store in over 10 years, and I refuse to buy them. And I don't even like eggs that much! I'm getting about a dozen a day, and I eat maybe... three a week? I've got to find someone who wants them!
