What happens to the yolks??

Q. I have a question: what happens to the yolks?

A. Great question! We sell the yolks to companies that make a variety of products: ice cream, salad dressing, various pastries. Even better is that the eggshells are ground into a powder and sold to companies that use it in dog and cat food, as eggs shells are the perfect calcium for animals...similar to egg whites being the perfect protein for humans.

Have a egg white or health-related question? We receive questions every day and are HAPPY to answer them for you. Feel free to post your questions to us on the blog or contact us!We also post Eggology Frequently Asked Questions on our website!
