Okay, so the truth of this is, yeah people check for cracked eggs, but there’s more to it…

It’s extremely important to make sure all the eggs have the proper luminosity. You can tell this by opening the carton and holding the eggs up against the lighting. Eggs with the correct luminosity will reflect a cooler tone - no less than 5,500K, while eggs that are of poor quality will reflect a more yellowish or reddish hue. Eggs with the correct luminosity contain higher amounts of vitamin D and B12, and are generally better for use as binding agents in various recipes.

You also need to give them a little shake to make sure the yolk and whites are the proper viscosity.

Toss them in the air to check their hang time.

If the hang time is too long you picked up the chicken instead of the egg.

It's important to have a job that makes a difference, boys. That's why I manually masturbate caged animals for artificial insemination.

Someone’s never come home with a slightly cracked egg that’s glued itself and three friends to the carton.

If you’re that pressed for time, turn the carton over. You’ll see a darker color if one has cracked and it’ll feel off when one or more doesn’t move.

yeah when you buy tomatoes in a box, turn it over to see whether it's wet on the bottom. if it's wet -> it's moldy.

This is the type of person to pick up fruit and vegetables without checking their conditions, then be shocked when they're bruised and damaged

[–] Jankatarch@lemmy.world 3 points 1 hour ago

Also sometimes people steal an egg or two for some reason but I can tell that one by weight.

[–] sbv@sh.itjust.works 7 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

And fakes. You always need to be on the lookout.

@$100 a 12pk they always add a fake or forget one, never get 13 of them man even a six pack

i check vegetables and eggs for freshness. in my imagination, if it's bad, you can smell it. and to smell it properly, open the carton lid.
