Early today I went to the new Whole Foods in my area (NOVA). I wasn't surprised to see duck, quail and gourmet chicken eggs. But I was surprised to see emu (a pretty dark blue) and ostrich eggs @ $19.95 each from CA. It just seems like whole lot of egg (1 ostrich= to 20-24 chicken).
Has anyone else seen/tasted these, and what are they good for (other than really large omelettes)?
Thanks!
