Yes and NO. Yes because a fertilized egg is much fresher than a store bought egg. Eating anything that fresh would usually translate into healthier eating. No, because the nutritional difference between a fertilized egg and a non fertilized egg is negligible. The only difference between the two is a very tiny germinal disk on top of the yolk. Very few people would even be able to spot the difference and certainly eating one or the other would have no nutritional benefits.

no that is how people eat eggs. we eat eggs that chickens/hens hatch that aren't fertilized.


Can you eat the egg if it shows the germinal disk?

Yes, you can eat an egg that shows a germinal disk, as this indicates that the egg has been fertilized. However, the presence of the germinal disk does not necessarily mean the egg is developing into a chick, especially if it has been properly stored and is fresh. Most eggs sold for consumption are not fertilized, but if you do encounter a fertilized egg, it is generally safe to eat as long as it has been handled and cooked appropriately.

Where does the chick go before you eat an egg?

Before you eat an egg, the chick develops inside the egg if the egg is fertilized. It goes through various stages of embryonic development, growing organs and tissues until it's ready to hatch. If the egg is not fertilized, it does not contain a developing chick and is simply a food product laid by the hen. In commercial egg production, most eggs sold for consumption are unfertilized.
