I thought they only did that in China. The process to make it is very time consuming. Dont know if it would be worthwhile to do that here because labour costs are not cheap.

i wonder would they be sending for a chemistry testing, which should reveal a better perspective to the news.

Yep....looks like it takes sometime to make just 1 egg....simpler to leave it to the chickens

Not when bird-flu has decimated half or more of the poultry industry - then the economics will change ....

[leonardchin]

Any reason to produce fake eggs?

Is it something similar concept to that of vegetarian meat?

This may be a harsh statement but I have personally resolved to avoid all food made (risk of artificial product) and grown (risk of chemicals and heavy pesticide levels) in China. Can't trust the mainland Chinese entrepreneurs ever since their melamine venture (and I read that they haven't even bothered to stop adding melamine to milk products after the discovery)

Sounds like you will not travel to China, and if you do likely you have to bring along all food and drinks required for the trip…

let us not belittle our neighbours with the little knowledge of history that we have learnt. Not everyone was a convict in the past and that statement suggest inheritance of bad genes ... totally unacceptable and insensitive. Also breaks our rules in the Forum

kwchang,
Above is the comment from you on one of my posts in other thread…

Surprisingly, I found a lot of similarities of the above comment (in blue font) with the quoted post and hope you don’t mind I borrowed it (with slight modification) to comment you…

I think the above comment constitute to slander...

Will you banana yourself ??... I would suggest you do

[currymee]

All I know is that when I crack an egg now, I am having a good look at it before cooking/eating .... so sad .... even mundane things also have to be doubly careful

[4everlove]

Maybe Chang can learn to relax a bit. No need to act so 'superior' & ultra righteous' that you have to give banana so easily.

[Hopefull]

If you look at the intensive labor required to produce one egg, one would know that there's no way a fake egg could cost less in production than just buying the real hen eggs...and exporting and storage from China will was also incur high cost

[aursong]

I think the above comment constitute to slander...

I believe the slander word was highlighted by Raikonnen on your description of Aussies as a whole...

Cheers...

What do you look for? The words "Made in Guangzhou"?

Hahaha .... I wish it WERE that SIMPLE - it was mentioned in the newspaper article (see first post) that the yoke and the white are not "properly" separated - normal eggs, the yoke are held in a tight sphere by chalaza (whatever that is) ...

Extracts below:

"When cracked, there was no sign of chalaza, the structure inside the egg that keeps the yolk in place.

“The fake egg white and yolk quickly mixed together, unlike that of real eggs,”
