Dyeing our Eggs
Wednesday, November 18, 2009 at 5:30PM Neither Shauen nor I can make omelets. We try, it just always ends up as scrambled eggs with veggies and cheese mixed in (still delicious). We tried once again the other day, and once again the same results. As we sat down to our breakfast, Shauen asked if I noticed something special. I realized that the eggs were yellow! The majority of eggs here have white yolks, you can find and pay extra for organic, yellow-yolk eggs (actually advertised as such) but we typically don't. Apparently while getting the eggs ready for our pseudo-omelet/scrambled eggs, the whiteness of the egg mixture started to drive Shauen a little crazy and he snuck in some yellow food dye so that we could have yellow eggs for breakfast! In the States some people really try avoiding foods with unnatural ingredients such as food dye; here, we add them in ourselves! -Krista
