Over heard one that made me shake my head.

A grown woman, and adult, was expressing their shock to seeing a double yoke egg. and they comment how they didn't realize that the yoke was the part that would be the chicken. They always thought the white was the chicken.

A friend of there's stepped in and said this woman should use it as a topic in her home schooling.

My thought was if they are home schooling they should STOP NOW! I've never heard of anyone thinking the white of the egg was the chicken/bird. :shaking:
 
Know why the chicken crossed the road?

i dunno...i wouldnt be surprised if there were a number of public school teachers that didtn know that either.
 
You are both wrong. The embryo is what becomes the chicken. The yolk is what it eats while it's growing. The white helps protect it and provides some nutrition.
 
We had some scrambled alligator eggs down in New Orleans...The had quite a bite to them!:rolleyes:
 
I Never said the yoke was the chicken. ;)

Good point! :flipoff2: :lol: I guess there's future chicken on my face! I read this on the phone the first time. Missed that detail. However, she is still wrong on both counts. It's neither one.

On a similar topic, we used to get fertilized eggs in with the dozens we'd buy at the store. I can't remember having seen an embryo in an egg in years. Are they doing something different?
 
Allow me to reiterate

Yolk

If you refrigerate the egg within 24 hours of it being laid it won't incubate. I am guessing that improvements in refrigeration have made a difference.
