They’d be like chicken eggs but proportional to your size. It just happens regardless of if you’re planning to eat them or not. Taste would be very similar to chicken eggs.

No.
Shit no. Chickens that peck at their own eggs have major problems, either psychological/stress or nutritional.
Maybe ask a woman what her period tastes like and after you get kicked in the nuts so hard they bounce off the roof of your mouth, you’ll know the flavor of reproductive material one way or another.

On somethingawful you could pay to have other accounts suspended, we need this.
Please never post again
Proportional to size… I’m ~36x the mass of a chicken (2.5/90 kg), so my eggs would be something like 2 .3 kg per egg. If the shell was 8% of the mass, it’s a LOT of egg holy crap.
Um idk, I guess I would be pretty hungry if I laid a giant egg every day
Women’s Health magazines be like:
“Skip eating your egg to lose up to 5lbs a week!”
Within the very same magazine “top 20 health benefits of eating your own egg”
5 simple recipes to make your egg more palatable!
Damn, Frank. That’s a hell of an egg you’re laying. Kudos.
I mean chickens (and other egg laying animals) will eat their own eggs to recuperate the energy, so it certainly seems like the smart thing to do :3. I mean an egg of that size every day would really require you to increase intake of both calories and various minerals
Putting egg shells into chicken feed is a good way to recycle that calcium. But you gotta crush them first cause chickens are stupid as hell and if they learn that their eggs are edible they’ll just eat them right away.
Yep! :3
We give our egg shells to the lady we buy our eggs from lol, so I have partaken in that sort of calcium recycling scheme
Would rather stop the process. Your going to use more energy and resources creating them than you get back eathing them. You can’t sustain chickens on their eggs.
Exactly. Conservation of energy being a thing, this would metabolically be a net loss for me. Even if I ate my own egg every morning, I would still need a consistent source of calcium, magnesium, and phosphorous to keep my bones from turning into styrofoam.
Nah, doesn’t matter what your views are that’s a form of cannibalism.
Do you eat your own cum now?
Occasionally ❤️
A large egg coming out of my ass? I’m not sure I would enjoy this.
don’t knock it until you tried it ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
How about this?
You mean you haven’t tried Bad Dragon’s ovipositor collection yet?
They don’t generally come from there, but given the choice… I’d go with ass every time.
Wait until you hear about the cloaca.
Why is ass the better choice? Genuinely curious.
My thinking is that a vagina is way more stretchy and could handle an egg that big a lot better than the rectum would. And no risk of hemorrhoids vaginally afaik.
I don’t have one of those. Also, just because it might be nice.
Oh right… the secret third option! My bad
If I’m not reproducing I need to re-absorb all that protein somehow. There’s a reason so many mammals eat the afterbirth aka the placenta.
You’re bringing me back to seeing my cat give birth as a child. Aghast doesn’t cover it. It was good learning though.
It’s hard to picture, as a real human who grew up eating eggs and not laying them. Since the human race has always faced the threat of starvation, I expect the cultural norm would have developed a long time ago that eating your own eggs is perfectly natural and normal. A taboo against eating them would be a serious disadvantage during a famine. We would grow up with many cultural influences about the eggs. Religious texts like the bible would no doubt make moral pronouncements many people would follow without question. It might even be a political issue.
I scrolled through the thread real quick and saw this compared to both cum and breast milk. But that’s not what this is. Eggs are what’s left over after the chicken doesn’t get pregnant. They are effectively a menstrual product. So instead of semen or milk, you should be asking yourself if you consume period blood.
Hmm… so the white is like the amniotic fluid and the yolk is a placenta…
Honestly if it came out as a nicely packaged chunk of nutrient dense meat in protein water I could see a world where they were a delicacyI mean, it wouldn’t surprise me if some people said yes. There are people/cultures that eat the placenta after a woman gives birth. It’s not far-fetched.
Also, I’d argue that the shell is more like the placenta. Yes to the egg white being amniotic fluid. The yolk is what turns into a chicken.
Eat the eggs…? That seems like a waste. I mean, sure, for an occasional snack but I’d wait until the mini-me hatched and have a succulent meal later. If you’re laying one every day and were patient you could feed an army. Which I would have because I’d only eat every other off-spring and the others would be the foundation of the new Imperial order.
If you’re letting your mini mes live you could just keep 5 or so trapped and steal their eggs for dinner.
You’re hired!
Boys, meet the new Strategic Advisor of the Ascendant Imperial Grand Alliance.
It would be nice to have something come out of my butt that tasted good. 🤔
Pretty sure it would be something coming out of your cloaca that tasted good. About time.
We could make our own custard like the platypus
We should have monthly votes on this.
I hope lemmy/piefed Mercator this feature.
