  If anyone's wondering, that's a 104⅙ grosses.

  > Norway’s Olympians will enjoy them scrambled with salmon, fried in omelets, and even as egg-rich sugar bread, “for medal winners.” ...tell me more about this egg-rich sugar bread because it sounds delicious.

      I wonder if that’s what they’re talking about. French Toast is delicious, but maybe they’ve got something even better?

        > maybe they’ve got something even better? They do, bread pudding, which is also sometimes served as a breakfast food in addition to being a dessert.

  Might be a case of ‘lost in translation’ but most probable reflects the real costs of Norwegian eggs.

  Is that guy just sitting on the egg crates, with his foot resting on another? I know europeans and americans have differing views on egg handling, but this seems extreme. Even if I had such a surplus of eggs, I'm not sure if I would pose sitting on them. I don't necessarily have an equal surplus of pants.
