What did the egg do when it saw the frying pan?
It scrambled!
Interesting Fact: Bird eggs have been valuable foodstuffs since prehistory, in both hunting societies and more recent cultures where birds were domesticated. The chicken was probably domesticated for its eggs from jungle fowl native to tropical and subtropical Southeast Asia and India before 7500 BCE. Chickens were brought to Sumer and Egypt by 1500 BCE, and arrived in Greece around 800 BCE, where the quail had been the primary source of eggs.[5] In Thebes, Egypt, the tomb of Haremhab, built about 1420 BCE, shows a depiction of a man carrying bowls of ostrich eggs and other large eggs, presumably those of the pelican, as offerings.[6] In ancient Rome, eggs were preserved using a number of methods, and meals often started with an egg course.[6] The Romans crushed the shells in their plates to prevent evil spirits from hiding there.[7] In the Middle Ages, eggs were forbidden during Lent because of their richness.[7] The word mayonnaise possibly was derived from moyeu, the medieval French word for the yolk, meaning center or hub.

I am totally stealing this egg joke for my daily note to put in my son’s lunch box tomorrow!
I enjoy following your daily photo post. So awesome!
I am happy to help out hope he liked it. Thank you very much for stopping by and bringing up my day with your comment. 🙂
Love the photo. I’m imagining the chick inside doing time for a crime he didn’t commit!
Haha I like that. “doing time for a crime he didn’t commit”. Thank you very much for stopping by and make me smile. 🙂
It’s all about the count…great concept and photo!
Thank you very much, I am very pleased that you enjoy it. 🙂
You are welcome:)
Eggxactly right. I like etymology and signed up for Webster’s daily email word.
That is great. Thank you for stopping by. 🙂
What an idea!
Thank you very much. 🙂
I love the wit of your photograph. As an aside, I’ve actually eaten an ostrich egg. My Grandad used to get us to try all sorts of weird and wonderful foods. The sight of a gigantic egg has stuck with me all these decades.
Oh wow did it taste good? Thank you for stopping by and sharing this amazing memory about your grandad. 🙂
It tasted just like a good quality chicken egg. I remember the yolk being very runny (a good thing!) presumably because it was hard to get it to set more thoroughly before the albumen burned. I actually have stronger memories of the taste of duck eggs and goose eggs so I guess the size of the ostrich egg left more of an impression than its taste.
Wow that is awesome. 🙂
Love this!! 🙂
Thank you very much. 🙂
Great photo idea. Love it. Don’t forget the chinese hundred year eggs. They really taste hundred years old, but in an interesting smelly sort of way.
🙂 Thank you very much, I appreciate you stopping by and sharing with us. 🙂
I love the tally marks inside the egg. Great humour!
Thank you very much, I appreciate you stopping by and check out my work. 🙂
The marks inside the shell made me laugh. Thanks. 🙂
Thank you very much, it makes me happy to see that you enjoyed my work. 🙂
