The Lucky Egg


Have you ever eaten an egg with two yolks?
This was my first time to eat an egg with two yolks. How unusual, I thought. Is it lucky? I asked Farmer John. Yes, very luck! he responded. Is it common? I asked. Yes, very common! he replied.
Being an American, sometimes I forget that the food I buy at the store has been processed, even eggs. Eggs with two yolks are bigger than other eggs, and so the farmer (or the factory) picks them out before they are able to be packaged.
Double yolks is more common than I thought, but even so, not SO common,
and still very lucky,
and
delicious.
