Fake eggs, or artificial eggs, are eggs "produced" artificially, rather than real eggs laid by chickens. It is said that the yolk of this fake egg is particularly elastic after being cooked and can be used as a ping pong. The ball hits.

The shells of fake eggs are made of calcium carbonate, paraffin wax and gypsum powder. Egg whites and egg whites are mainly made of sodium alginate, plus alum, gelatin, pigments, etc.

According to the analysis of nutritionists, this kind of fake eggs does not have any nutrients, and long-term consumption can easily lead to serious consequences such as memory loss and dementia.

So, how do we identify fake eggs?

From the appearance point of view. The appearance, color and weight of fake eggs are similar to real eggs, but the shell of fake eggs is brighter and rougher than real eggs.

Shake the eggs. The fake eggs will make a sound when shaken because the water will overflow from the coagulant.

After the fake egg is opened, the yolk and egg white will melt together; when frying the fake egg, the yolk will automatically fall apart without stirring.

Put the opened egg under your nose and smell it. The fake egg does not have the fishy smell that real eggs should have.

Under the egg lamp, the air chamber of the fake egg is visible, which is different from the real egg. This is because there is a gap between the egg skin and egg white of the fake egg. The fake eggs have a muffled sound when knocked.

After cooking the real and fake eggs, the yolks of the fake eggs cannot be crushed and are very elastic.

Real eggs can also cause harm to the human body if not eaten properly. The following foods cannot be eaten with eggs.

White sugar. People often like to cook boiled eggs with sugar. In fact, this is an unscientific way to eat them. This causes the amino acids in the egg protein to form fructose-lysine conjugates. Not easily absorbed by the human body.

Rabbit meat. Because rabbit meat is sweet, cold, and sour, while eggs are sweet and slightly cold. If eaten together, the biologically active substances in the two will react, irritating the intestines and causing diarrhea.

Soy milk. Soy milk contains trypsin. If combined with the egg pine protein in egg white, it will cause the loss of nutrients and reduce the nutritional value.
