World Egg Day – Friday Humor

World Egg Day, observed annually on the second Friday of October, is dedicated to celebrating the impact of eggs—one of the world’s most popular and nutritious foods. Eggs symbolize nourishment, simplicity, and creativity, and their presence in kitchens globally highlights their vital role in daily diets.

Fun Family Science Experiment: The Bouncy Egg

• 1 raw egg
• 1 cup or jar
• Vinegar

Instructions

1. Carefully place the egg into the cup or jar.
2. Pour vinegar over the egg until it’s fully covered.
3. Leave it for 24–48 hours. You’ll notice bubbles forming as the acid in the vinegar reacts with the calcium carbonate in the eggshell.
4. After two days, gently rinse the egg under water — the shell will have dissolved, leaving a rubbery, bouncy egg held together by its membrane.

2. Women have eggs and milk in them…
