Americans, why are your eggs so white?

Asked by randomness (1327points) December 27th, 2009

In every movie, documentary, and picture I’ve seen of eggs in America, the eggs are a bright white. It’s like someone left them to soak in bleach prior to selling them. All of the eggs are identical, and as white as snow, like little albino clones…. It looks incredibly strange.

So Americans, are all of your eggs like this? Do you buy eggs like this? Why are the eggs so white, and why are they all the exact same shape and size? Do you have special identical albino chickens to make your identical albino eggs, or do you do something to the eggs to make them identical and colourless?
