Show YELLOW EGGS. "I have a regular customer." said a West Side grocer, "who Invariably Insists on having large, yellow eggs. She is a native of Boston, and she tells me that this preference for yellow or Brahma eggs is a peculiarity of Boston people. They like those eggs best, and they command com-mand a better price in that city than the white eggs. New Yorkers, I have observed, ob-served, like white eggs best, and I have customers who are willing to pay more for all whites than for eggs mixed with yellow ones. "I don't see, though, why yellow eggs shouldn't be worth the most, for five Brahma eggs will equal seven of the ordinary or-dinary white ones, but they are stronger and coarser .than any other eggs. The Brahma egg doesn't spread all over, when turned out of the shell soft boiled, or when dropped in the pan to fry, as ail white shelled eggs do.. My customer who 1 Insists on the yellows, though, says there is a richness of flavor to that sort that no other sort possesses. I agree with the New Yorker, nevertheless, and say that the white egg is more delicate and palatable." pala-table." New York Times. |
