This is why you use stuff like waterglass https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_silicate https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_silicate to seal them.

- parl_match 2y agonamespace collision: to the layperson, it's organic because it came from an organism. from a chemical perspective, it's considered non-organic i admit i read ops comment and was confused for a second until it clicked. they're mostly calcium carbonate
- mulmen 2y agoI wondered about that but then in context wasn’t sure of the relevance. I’m aware that even fresh eggs are somewhat porous and wouldn’t expect the contents to last beyond a week before beginning to break down.
- foxyv 2y agoCalcium carbonate. So a salt I guess?
- mulmen 2y agoSo eggs shells are less organic than I would think.
