Eggspecially for your information
Did you know that eggs come in 10s here in Germany? Coming from Brazil this wasn't a big deal to us because we'd had 10 years to get used to eggs by the 10s while living there. In Brazil they are called a "dezena" of eggs (a 10 of eggs) - in Germany its a "dutzend".

I hope none of the numbers on the label is the price! Here, in the US the eggs that have been printed upon are something special and cost more. Mike
every egg has a "label" regardless of the price. i suppose it might be a way of telling the consumer that the egg has been checked or something or other...
When i was growing up, we always called a dozen eggs "nuh dutz" in plautdieschtze. Our dozen had 12 eggs in it, though.
