NATIONAL EGG DAY

June 3rd is an eggcellent day to practice egg puns and recognize National Egg Day.

One of the most perfect foods, eggs are packed with protein, amino acids, and have no carbohydrates or sugar.

As far as versatility goes, sorry Bubba, but there may be more ways to cook an egg than shrimp. From the humble, hard-boiled egg to the elegant souffle, eggs Benedict and Florentine, eggs offer so many delicious ways to enjoy them.

Even within the good old breakfast standbys like fried eggs, we have options. Over easy. Well done. Sunnyside up. Basted. And add a side of bacon with that!

Then, of course, it’s portable. Slap it between some toast and off you go.
