    Actually, they're really yummy. Turkey eggs especially. People usually don't eat them because they're used to make little turkeys for your Thanksgiving table. But they are considered gourmet -- and I understand why. I've been selling the chicken eggs and using the turkey and goose eggs. I actually prefer them. They taste like chicken eggs only a tad richer and you use less eggs. No off taste.

    This reminds me of the time my brother called and told me he bought me a 'roast'. Earlier in the year he asked me if I liked deer meat. I told him no! The roast he was trying to entice me to pick up and cook was Deer meat. I have never had a turkey or goose egg. Or I have never knowingly eaten either of the two.
