Why would someone buy a dozen "medium" eggs instead of "large"?

I always notice that there are different sizes of eggs at the store, but they are the same price. Why do people buy medium when they could just buy large?

This depends upon several things, recepies mostly. Some people prefer the smaller variety in their cooking as the texture of the finished product is varied with the size of the egg.





Also, for some, a single (large) egg is not enough for the breakfast serving but a two large are. By using medium eggs, they can cook two eggs and have the preferred portion.





Hope this clears it up!
Reply:They are different prices at my grocery store. There's also a portion/calorie issue.
Reply:Eggs where I shop vary in price according to size. If all eggs were the same price, I'd buy jumbo.
Reply:They differ in price at my store. I suppose if they were the same price, and I was on a diet, I might get the smaller eggs to cut back a little. I suppose I could leave a little of the "large" egg on my plate, but who does that? You eat the whole egg.
Reply:I believe it has something to do with the size of the yolk.
Reply:I always buy large and was wondering the same thing a few days ago. Maybe people buy them because some recipes call for medium eggs as oppose to large. People may also buy them so they don't eat as much egg because they are on a diet or for some other reason. Thats everything I came up with!
Reply:Most recipes call for a 30gm egg which is a medium
Reply:Most places the prices vary from size to size. Some people might just prefer a smaller egg.
