15? Wth is this? Insanity.
Eggs come in 6 or 12 packs. That's it.
The other day I saw a place with a pack of 20 for the first time and had to recheck in what planet I was.
6-packs are available in the US, but it's mostly 12 and 18-packs. There's also the giant package, which must canonically be a "pallet" of eggs.
It's the Swedish bakers dozen so you can eat 3 raw eggs + shells on the way home and still have a dozen eggs to put in the fridge. It takes three eggs to equal the calories found in a small donut which is why the bakers dozen eggs is 15 instead of 13.
In Singapore, chicken eggs come in packs of 6, 10, 12 (always labelled as having two bonus eggs: 10 + 2), 15, and 30. Duck eggs come in packs of 6. Quail eggs come in cans (NFI how many they include).
6 or 12? Wth is this? Insanity.
Eggs come in 10 packs. That's it.
In City Center Supermarket I can get 4 packs.
Now, that's just sick.
Come to Japan: 1,2,4,6, and 10 are the common ones (10 is most common at supermarkets). They have flats as well at some stores which I'm guessing are 30 but I don't remember.
1 and 2? What is this, eggs for ants? 😂
In a place where people often eat raw egg, freshness is important. Also, tiny kitchens
