Egg Storage Experiment – Weeks 7 and 8 Results

If you’re unaware, I didn’t have a chance to do my egg experiment last week due to being out of town, so I just choose to postpone it a week. Here’s where it stands…

This is the mineral oil egg (they’re the same as they’ve always been… doesn’t float, didn’t smell, yolks look fine, etc):

As you can see there are two eggs this time in order to make up for last week. I cooked them up (see pic below) and ate them with no ill effects, funny taste, or anything like that:

Here’s a handful of the control eggs (they all floated and I didn’t bother to break them open for smell or to look at the yolk):

I actually decided to test all of the control eggs just for grins and they all floated. I know I’m supposed to feed them to the dog but I’m not interested in giving him the runs for the next few days so I decided to toss them out instead.

Going forward I’ll just check one mineral oil egg each week.

  1. Those control eggs served their purpose, discarding them was wise.

    I’m finding this fascinating.
