    Default Where do eggshells go?

    When you boil an egg and peel it to eat it, do you peel it over the trash, or over the sink? I personally prefer the trash, it doesn't clog the disposal thingy in your sink.

    Either in the Garbage Bin, or in my Scenery type of Displays also.

    the trash. Our garbage disposal has this bad habit of spewing things skyward when we turn it on, so small, potentially sharp objects like that are on the "Not In Here" list. (gods I can't wait to move!)

    Eggshells are good for your garbage disposal because they keep it sharp. In K's case not such a good thing.

    You are thinking of the sink stopper. I suppose you could put it on but you are technically supposed to run water when you use the disposal so.

    Egg shells go to the land of candy meat loaf, and ionized salt, where they recieve the love and tenderness of all the fairies in Narnia. And when the EggShells grow up, they turn into Grade A Vegetable Oil.

    When i was still on the family farm we would put them in an ice cream pail and give them to the chickens. Chickens ar vicious, cannabalistic little creatures who will peck each other's asses until they bleed and then some. We found the best way to combat and chickenyard full of bleeding chicken ass was to: 1) paint the chicken's butts with pine tar, and; 2) feed them their eggshells.

    More information than you asked for, most likely. I just felt like babbling today.

    yeah, i used to feed my chickens their eggshells back too, although that was to keep their calcium levels up so the shells would be stronger.

    my mum also used to make a hole in the bottoms of eggshells, so that the witches couldn't sail out to sea in them

    i peel them next to a trash ... as long as you put some salt in the water when you boil them, you can pretty much peel off the whole shell pretty easily.

    I have a garden in my back yard, so I peel them into a bowl and throw them into the compost for better soil next year.
