Two eggs one... .... ... egg.

You don't crack eggs on the sides of things, you crack eggs on flat surfaces. Everyone knows this.

Going to call you on that one. Do you cook?

You do crack eggs sides of things. Cracking them on a flat surface would make it harder to get a break and likely make more of a mess.

Yeah, I don't think I've ever tried cracking an egg without a sharp corner (maybe for breakfast tomorrow.) It just seems like it would make a bigger crack then needed.

Wrong. The flat surface prevents small pieces of egg shell from breaking off. I can crack a dozen eggs in 10 seconds with this method. Everyone knows this.

i would like to see some proof of this.

would you videotape yourself cracking a dozen eggs in 10 seconds on a flat surface and it not being a royal mess?
 
you know what guys, either way will crack an egg. If you're careful either way will work. In the end cooking isn't about how you get the egg out of the shell anyway, it's what you do with it afterward. Which would be smearing it all over... um... 😛

In any case, I crack eggs on flat surfaces. It works fine.
 
Cracking an egg on a flat surface isn't necessarily harder to open.

It doesn't really matter though. The only reason why people do it on flat surfaces is to avoid bits of the shell falling in as they crack the egg. I crack the egg on an edge, and I rarely, if ever drop a piece of shell in.

The only time a piece of shell falls in is if I try to get fancy and crack the eggs with one hand.

Can't be very common.

Not super common, but happens often enough. Weird egg things happen most often in younger hens just coming into laying age who are overweight. Even then though, after the first few weeks of laying, weird stuff becomes even more uncommon.

lol, the sad thing is, I cook a hell of a lot more than my brother does yet he can crack an egg with one hand and I can't.
 
I've had an entire carton of eggs that had two yolks in them - but never with an actual shell within a shell.
