Kili, to add to my previous post - you can tell if there are any stuck
eggs, by opening up the carton and running your hand lightly over the
top of the eggs to make sure they all move in the carton. Often, the
cashier will do this anyway to make sure you don't have any broken
ones. (Hmm, I guess I should wash them before using....)
