  • I mean I’d definitely be curious to try it, but I’m not the biggest fan of eggs to begin with, and it’s likely these would be useful for recipes that normally call for multiple eggs rather than like an egg on toast and what not.

    However, I’d like to note that if humans are laying eggs at like the rate chickens lay eggs, I guarantee you people would be eating them and it wouldn’t be as weird as it is from our current perspective. If half the population is laying one egg a day—with most being unfertilized—what the fuck are we going to do with all these eggs?

    The most efficient option is probably for the producer to eat the egg because that’s a ton of nutrients you just lost for no reason. But would you want to eat the same food every day? Probably not, even if it is mixed with other things. If you could sell it and buy food you actually wanted, that’s probably the better option.

    If we assume this kind of laying daily laying is commonplace, certain human cultures probably would already have traditional meals using human eggs because again if half the people in your society are laying like a kilo of viable nutrients and you just let them go to waste, that’s not really evolutionarily advantageous. Though, I should note most likely humans wouldn’t lay eggs this frequently because I think that might be a result of domestication. Anyway it would be kind of interesting to have to have artifacts that are like made of human egg shells. People might keep fragments of their children’s hatching shells which would be kind of odd.

    Also laying, even if infrequent, would be fucking annoying and I’d imagine birth control pills that just stop you from laying eggs would be very widely used. I can also imagine influencers marketing their eggs to fans a la gamer girl bath water which is not a thought I wanted to have today so thanks for that. Oh also people saying they can tell if someone is a virgin or a slut (the only two categories for these idiotic comparisons) by how their eggs look would probably be a thing because people are stupid like that already. Though hey Easter egg painting could be fun with huge eggs you can actually like paint on.

    Anyway, to the people who mentioned this making more people uncomfortable eating other animals eggs, I disagree.

    If laying eggs happens frequently and was a thing that had been happening for a while, I’d assume many people would not find it odd to eat the eggs, especially in the like autocannibalism way. And if it was commonplace to eat human eggs, people would probably be less averse to eating other animals eggs not more disgusted by it.

  • this reminds me of a very specific doujinshi... lmaooo

  • If humans laid eggs we would have evolved super different. Can't spread across the globe following herds around if you've gotta keep your eggs warm all the damn time.

  • Probably not, since I don't drink human breast milk either.
    ::: spoiler Oh boy, ready for it to get weird?
    I'd eat lab grown human meat though. Which is weird because I wouldn't eat meat from an amputated limb (that had to be amputated for some medical reason, but the meat would still, somehow, not be dangerous to consume) where the amputee consented to that happening.
