Have eggs instead

What came first?

In the end, it's just an egg. But few foods seem to make us stop ad think about life to the degree that eggs do.

We argue over whether chickens or eggs came first. We wonder how these seemingly fragile structures can be so strong. We stare at their iconic shape, and wonder about the visceral thrill of our former six-year-old selves throwing them as high as we can, then waiting for the inevitable splat.

No other food in the grocery store offers up so much entertainment value.

Your turn: Eggs...good or bad?
