have you heard (or try maybe) about fake egg??

for you that never heard before let me tell you... :P

China 's Guangdong province , during a recent raid on a wholesale center in Guangzhou city found a

large quantity of fake egg... the price is half cheaper than the real egg.

based on Chinese magazine East week, to create egg white, the instructor - a woman in her 20s -

used assorted ingredients such as gelatin, an unknown powder, benzoic acid, coagulating

material and even alum, which is normally used for industrial processes.

For egg yolk, some lemon-yellow colouring powder is mixed to a liquid and

the concoction stirred. The liquid is then poured into a round-shaped

plastic mould and mixed with so-called 'magic water', which contains calcium chloride.

This gives the 'yolk' a thin outer membrane, firming it up. The egg is then shaped with a mould.

The shell is not forgotten. Paraffin wax and an unidentified white liquid are poured onto the fake

egg, which is then left to dry

The artificial egg can be fried sunny-side up or steamed. Although bubbles appear on the white

of the egg, those who have tasted it say the fake stuff tastes very much like the real thing.
