Or a dozen and a half...and often buy one, get one free, so really 36 eggs.

Then there's the five-dozen packs at Costco...

I'm amazed that you can't buy 6 eggs....

You've always been able to get either a dozen or half a dozen here.
Well I can get them here, and I'm sure you can find them out on the Wetcoast as well, well you at least could a couple of years ago when I was there.

Six pack of eggs? Never seen that before.

Here, they sell them in packages with 6, 9, 10 and 12 eggs, though I only remember seeing the 6 and 12 egg version. Not that I care, since I usually go for the biggest package.

I like eggs.

So... it's 04:00am now. Whould it be weird if I started boiling eggs now? :confused:

And in most places I've seen, German shepherds are called "Alsatians", since they derive from the Alsace region of France (which borders Germany).

Wow, never heard that name before.

Duh it obviously means that the rabit enjoys pancakes on its head.;)

Well, since we're talking about different names in different places... they're not pancakes, they're pikelets :p

But I have never seen eggs look so orngish/clumpy? Is that normal in Europe for eggs to look that way?

No... not enough stirring in the pan, I think. As for orangeish, we do tend to have more orange yolks than US eggs. I was also astonished when staying with friends in the US that her eggshells were all white. Most eggs in the UK are brown; white ones are a relative rarity (ie you pay extra to get them in supermarkets). Waitrose sell some that have blue and pink shells though that are especially fun at Easter.

English muffins; they used to just call them muffins over here (and in supermarkets they still do, as the packaging shows). But since the rise of the American muffin, people tend to say which they're buying/cooking.
 
thinking about it i'm not quite sure what the normal size for packs of egg is here... but i'm sure we have packs of 6 as well.. and they look quite normal

.. oh well now i'm hungry as well
