Who tf out here eating penguin eggs??? 🐧🥚🤦♂️
They only lay one or two a year, it seems mean to eat it
Didn’t know people ate penguin eggs. I learned something today.
Why are people eatin penguin eggs lmao
I was really hoping for a comment explaining *why* this happens versus the whites of other eggs, but alas–OP you’ve managed to find a topic that causes more rage than information.
Almost like they’re warning you not to eat them.
Do all eggs taste the same or are they different? Only ever had chicken eggs
This is unusually disgusting.
It become transparent because the protein that makes “normal” eggs white when boiled, namely ovalbumin, is scarce in penguin eggs
It looks like a facehugger is going to hatch out of there.
Bezos is serving those for his $600m wedding
What color are they raw?
Who…? How…? What in the world..? Wtf
I don’t like this
Not very appetizing
They become feathery if hatched.
So, it’s illegal but they are a super [food](https://penguinehub.com/can-you-eat-penguin-eggs/) based on nutritional value.
“More intense than a chicken egg”
“Analysis reveals that these eggs possess a distinctive richness and a pronounced umami quality.”
Then why are we calling them egg “whites?”
Penguin Clear or Penguin Zero.
Who the flip is out here boiling penguins?
Idk what’s funnier. The fact it’s a repost from 2 years ago, or the fact that the top comment on both posts is also the same.
I’m really conflicted with “should you be eating this?”
Barf.
OP goes to the Baltimore aquarium and asks for a menu
Ya know…some things just never cross your mind
…but now I wonder – do ppl eat penguin??…I’m off to google
Update: why, yes they do (or did) …all penguin species are now protected from hunting AND egg collecting *achem*🤨
You monster D:
Don’t they only lay one egg a year?
Can honestly say this is the first time I’ve even considered that someone might boil a penguin egg.
Gentoo eggs, I do believe.
