Why would you ever want your eggs to be asymmetrical if you could help it? Eggs are fragile and symmetry promotes greater carton balance
post
To be fair, even weight distribution will lessen the chances for someone grabbing the empty end and having the heavy end droop the carton causing eggs to fall on the floor (this is a lessons learned) 🥚
I keep all the eggs at the end that's facing out, where I grab it. Less leverage on the carton.
Maybe I'm not autistic enough... But what do you do when there's an odd number of eggs left?
Fuck. I sorta do this. Not our of some need for symmetry, but so it's center of gravity is as close to the center of the carton as possible. Dropping eggs sucks.
I do similar but take out the outer corner ones first because they're the most likely to get knocked in the fridge :P
I do this! If I'm the one cooking, I'm cooking eggs in pairs so there's never an odd number too.
