I just remembered the excitement when Mom brought home the first 36 egg carton we'd ever seen. It contained 18 brown and 18 white eggs and we were playing tic-tac-toe and mini-checkers in short order. "King Me!!!" produces messy and delicious results. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd pack them at one end of the carton, and cut off the empty rows to make more room in the fridge for root beer. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always use my eggs starting at the ends and working my way in - keeping the ends as balanced as possible as I go. So those would all get moved into the middle leaving each end row empty. Part of the reason for that is my slight OCD tendencies, but also so the weight of the carton stays balanced, helping me to not drop it or spill eggs as I pull it from the fridge.

The right way is to move three eggs so that the ends are both full and you leave two empty rows in the middle. Move the fewest eggs possible.

My husband has, more than once, intentionally moved eggs around in the carton just to mess with me. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QA is seriously lazy in the egg business. When we pay extra for premium eggs, we expect better care. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My OCD tendencies are mostly pretty minor and sometimes odd. The stamp being off and eggs not all totally upright doesn't bother me much. However, ALL of the eggs MUST be placed with their pointy side Down Edited December 27, 2021 by LittleMe Jewell Forgot the last word 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose should be careful setting fire in an egg conflict. Gulliver might show up and pee on us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess I thought everyone did it like that. 😁 I always thought it was logical to, since it keeps the carton weight balanced. However, my husband once balanced the weight by distributing the eggs as @Rolig Loon suggested, with the open spots in the middle. He chuckled when he saw me rearranging them to fill in the middle.
