Are people actually having issues of cracked eggs? I have never in my whole life ran into, or heard of anyone else running into a cracked egg in a carton.
Well they’re protected by paper mache. So yeah cracked eggs are a problem. I don’t want to deal with that and I can avoid dealing with that by opening the box.
They started pretending they could avoid people opening the carton by just using flimsy clear shit plastic cartons here. Still gotta take out the cracked eggs though, just don’t have to open the carton to find em anymore which is nice
Yep, had happened to me twice recently after not happening for a long time. It’s like the seatbelt in the car, most of the time you don’t need it, but when you do, you’re happy that you did.
And not just look, wiggle each egg to verify it haven’t cracked in the bottom which will make it stick to the package
It happens. I can’t say it’s super common, but even with the protection of the cartons, accidents happen. Hell, I’ve checked in store, and had an egg crack on the way home from braking hard. Only once, but it shows that the right forces in the right way can cause cracks.
I haven’t bought eggs in years now (yay for my hen!), but I’d see it maybe twice a year or so
Wow. Where I shop, egg cracking is only one of the jobs of the guy, he also spills sugar, dents cans, removes one soda can tab per pack, bruises tomatoes, pretty much all these jobs.
Oh yeah it’s a big store here. Also we got a powerful union, one job, one dude. I was the sugar spiller for a season, but I kept getting ants in bed no matter how much I washed and changed sheets.
I really gotta stop eating there, but maybe next job I’ll have less ants
I run into it often, but I live in a rural place where eggs are commonly sold in huge quantities (like bulk 5 and 1/2 dozen cartons). Usually I’ll find another carton that’s got cracked eggs as well, and swap for some good ones.

Shop at aldi and you will find entire crates of eggs that are cracked.
German efficiency. That way you can check that all the eggs are full, so you don’t get an empty one.

Yep. Eggs and seatbelts, Totally as important.
Gotta get the protein!

I don’t want to be behind you when you brake.
I wouldn’t either tbh. Small car, great brakes, and I don’t speed. So when I hit them to prevent a problem, that fucker stops.
You shop at more expensive stores than me. I swear they employ someone whose sole job is to crack eggs

well now you just jinxed yourself.

Yeah, saw a whole box of cracked eggs last time I bought them.
You’re not supposed to drop them.
