Geez this country is really obsessed with eggs. Almost like it’s some kind of hard addiction.
At this point, I’m astonished no one has come up with some kind of synthetic egg that looks, acts, and tastes just like the real thing.
It appears a hen needs about 115g of feed a day to produce one 50g egg, so the product yield is less than half the input, plus all the other overhead like conditioned living space, water, antibiotics, lobbying for ag-gag laws against animal rights activists… I bet someone could come up with a more efficient way to make an egg. They could even call it something like “Aeg™” which could have some cute marketing meaning.
Have you tried these? If so, are they any good?
The real problem that needs to be solved for the true veggie-egg takeover is a runny yolk.
This stuff is a substitute for scrambled eggs. It will never give you a runny yolk.
As for the taste, I actually like it, but it tastes nothing like eggs. It has more of a bean sprout like flavor. They nailed the egg texture though.
