Eggs are frequently used in both sweet and savoury dishes as a source of protein as well as to bind the other ingredients in a recipe together.
Eggs may also be pickled; hard-boiled and refrigerated; or eaten raw, though the latter is not recommended for people who may be susceptible to salmonella, such as the elderly, the infirm, or pregnant women.
The most commonly used bird eggs are those from the chicken, duck, and goose, but smaller eggs such as quail eggs are occasionally used as a gourmet ingredient, as are the largest bird eggs, from ostriches.

Egg Harbor in the fifteen years after 1855 was not a local New Jersey affair, but a nationally advertised German-American undertaking, an experiment which the Germans all over the country watched with intense interest.
The explanation for this abundance of Germanic sounding names everywhere in Egg Harbor City would have to be found in the early history of the town, a history of exactly one century, because the Egg Harbor story began in 1855.
There are a number of indications that Egg Harbor towards the end of the century became a bi-lingual town.

 Hens Will No Longer Be Starved But They Will Still Suffer
Suddenly the “necessary” and “beneficial” practice of starving hens to “rest” and “fast” the survivors for another round of relentless egg laying could be replaced by something less blatantly, inhumanly cruel.
(Feeding animals is the biggest cost of raising them for human food.) By the end of the century 75 percent or more of U.S. egg producers routinely deprived their hens of food once, twice, even three times before sending the dwindling number of survivors to slaughter.
Commercially, egg producers began force-molting hens in Washington State in 1932 (Hanke).
