Egg Storage Experiment – Week 5 Results

Real quick, here are the results from week 5 of the experiment…

This is the mineral oil egg. It didn’t float, smelled fine, looked good:

This is the control egg. It floated (just like last week), the yolk is broken down, and I thought it might have smelled a bit funny but I was in a rush with everyone in town:

Here are the eggs together. The mineral oil egg is on the left, control on the right:

    WOW!!!

    What a difference between the two eggs when broken!

    By the way, most people can’t smell a bad egg until it is broken–and then there is no mistaking it!

    If it floats, just pitch it–FAR!

    I can’t see the side by side eggs. Would love to!

    Thanks for doing this experiment!

    1. Thanks for pointing that out, Bev. I was in a rush when I did the post and sometimes WordPress doesn’t cooperate. The image is there now.

  3. Mineral oil has proven itself! Now we’ll learn the exact longevity.
