My husband and I tried these at home and found them tasty.. Storage
life is advertised as 5 to 10 years unopened,

I merely wish to relay what we've found..

Well Diana: I hate to break this to you but about 45+ years ago when I
was jus a poor white boy my moma got USDA commodities. This was before
food stamps. Yep, a real treat to sit down to some steamin hot canned
spam, instant potatoes, and yes........... powdered eggs all washed down
with some nice warm powdered milk fresh from the box.

Ah, but lunch was usually deer or salmon followed with blackberry pie.

I'm sure your memories are vivid in your mind Bob, but I'd venture to
suggest that the majority of us had humble beginnings.. It was more the
nature of the times, rather than an exclusion from a more affluent
society..

I remember saving my school lunch money so I could buy chemicals and
books for my experiments... I think I needed to explore more than I
needed to eat.. Mom didn't know I skipped lunch, but I remember very
clearly.. It was a necessary expediency to attain my goals..

Perhaps what you remember as powdered eggs were really powdered egg
whites (?)... It was pretty common then to find the powdered egg whites..

The eggs I recommend are whole eggs, and they are pretty much equivalent
to homogenized whole eggs in my opinion.. I'm sure they're not for
everyone, but I look forward to using them when local eggs are not
available..

Thanks for the information Bob, it serves to illustrate just how united
in purpose and life we really are..
