By the time we had begun recording history we were eating hens eggs. All kinds of eggs - in times of emergencies, even alligator eggs. My doctor recommends only two a week but I eat seven, one a day for breakfast with coffee because I need it. Lots of artists use eggs for painting - egg tempera, which was used before oil paints were invented. Actually there is a lot to be said for egg tempera paintings because they are virtually indestructible. Thomas Hart Benton, Paul Cadmus, Robert Vickrey, and Andrew Wyeth paint with egg tempera.
