Safe- Yes, tasty- Depends on size if it is very tiny- pin head- go ahead and ignore it, bigger- you and sometimes blot it off with a paper towel- Blood spots come from the actual ovulation/release of the yolk from the ovary and sometime they bleed onto the yolk when this event occurs.

What is blood spot mean on an egg?

While it is unusual for you to find a blood spot in an egg from the store, it is not unusual to find one from an egg purchased from a local eggs farm stand. Blood spots are simply a malfunction in the oviduct of the hen. As the egg forms, it is common for small blood vessels to break releasing a tiny amount of blood which is then visible either in the yolk or the albumen of the egg. Blood spot, while unappetizing to most consumers are not bad or dangerous and will disappear when cooked. Home cooks often work hard to remove the slightest bit of blood from the egg when cooking at home but I can assure you that most restaurants don't bother to remove a small blood spot when cooking your breakfast and you would never know once the egg is cooked and served.


Does a red spot make an egg bad?

No, but it may mean it is fertile,or your hen has been sitting on it. Best not to eat it though. A small blood spot inside an egg is perfectly fine. The blood spot will disappear when the egg is cooked or you can simply remove the blood spot with a spoon prior to cooking. Blood spots appear because a small blood vessel breaks during the formation of the egg within the hen.

What is the little brown bit in an egg?

Blood or meat spots are occasionally found on an egg yolk and are merely an error on the part of the hen. They're caused by the rupture of a blood vessel on the yolk surface when it's being formed or by a similar accident in the wall of the oviduct. Most eggs with blood spots are detected by electronic spotters and never reach the market. But, even with mass scanners, it's impossible to catch them all. Both chemically and nutritionally, eggs with blood spots are fit to eat. You can remove the spot with the tip of a knife, if you wish.
