I had a really good friend who went to China on a family trip (she told me this personally, so it's not hearsay or anything). They bought some eggs from the local market to cook at home... And she said the eggs were really weird when they fried it. It tasted like plastic-ey... She said there is usually an immediate aroma once you fry the egg in pan, but the eggs they bought didn't have that... The egg still solidified with the frying, but the taste was really weird...
I am not sure if this is the "fake egg" the article is talking about... but I suspect anything is possible... |
