The other day at Whole Foods, they were selling Ostrich eggs. These things were freaking HUGE - but there were a few things that were funny about the eggs...- Would one buy an egg to feed a family of 4 or 6? How many servings is it?
- These things were $30 bucks each - holy criminy....even the chi chiest organic eggs cost maybe $7 per dozen.
- The cooking instructions on the sale tag was to boil or scramble for 1-2 hours...lol
- These were on display in the produce section - isn't that non kosher or something? just kidding...they should have really been in the egg section so we can show scale. But it would have only been super funny if Whole Foods also sold quail eggs
Can you imagine the deviled egg this thing would make? You would only make one...for the entire party.
I am insanely curious about it but cannot stand to spend $30 on this dinosaur egg. Is there anyone out there who is interested in trying this out with me...for science?

That price is silly, though I am sure it takes into account that they will bring in 20 and sell 2, so they have to pay for the whole lot. We'd get a better deal at the farm around easter, I think they're $10 then.
i went back to Whole Foods about 2 weeks later and there were about 3 or 4 eggs left...I wonder what the shelf life is of those things.
