I left eggs on the counter overnight.

[Domina]

About six of them. Nice, big, brown eggs. Can I still eat them?

[swimming with sharks]

I would! :shrug3

[SilverMoon]

I would, too. They're more ok than many people would think.

[Peridot]

eat them eat them, here they are! :shifty

[Mama Calidad]

Eggs don't need to be refrigerated.

[Mommainrwanda]

My eggs are always on the counter. :shrug3 But they come from the market and have never been refrigerated. It usually takes weeks for them to go bad.

[ThreeKids]

Totally fine.

[schmamy]

eggs have an easy test - put them in water. if they sink, they're fine; if they float, toss them.

I have heard that unwashed eggs don't need to be refrigerated, but I don't think that applies to washed, commercial eggs...? But I'd just do the sink-or-float test.

[mommymidwife]

So, if that follows, witches are bad eggs? ;)

[ThreeKids]

and good eggs weigh more than ducks

[SilverMoon]

:lol

I thought the good eggs float, and the boiled eggs sink? I know the boiled eggs spin faster.

[Zooey]

They are totally fine.
We always stored eggs on a shelf in the cellar when I was growing up. Yes, there are fewer extreme highs & lows down there, but we are talking weeks--even months.


(Of course,;) if witches are made of wood, they float anyhow)

I'm not crazy, I promise! :pout

[Soliloquy]

Totally, 100% fine. Enjoy!

[SilverMoon]

I was just feeling a little silly. I do like that boiled eggs spin quickly. (in my book that's all they're good for. Oh, and decorating at Easter)

Wow...I had no idea! Extremely enlightening, ladies. Thank you!
