Chinese eggs

Yesterday I bought organic eggs for the first time in China. They weren't that much more expensive than regular eggs. I am told, though, that China lacks legislation that governing organic food standards - meaning that anyone could label their goods "organic" without having to comply with a regulator's guidelines. Nevertheless organic eggs it was for us. When I opened them at home I was surprised to find them individually wrapped in a layer of styrofoam - not unlike a precious ornament. As for the taste it was hard to tell as the first one went into a batch of pikelet batter.
