    Did you buy extra large eggs or a double yolk carton?

      Just regular large eggs. Are extra large more likely to be double yolked? Or are there eggs somehow made to be double-yolked on purpose?

        I was under the impression that yes, but I’m not positive

        They do sell double-yolkers as a thing. You can shine a light through the shell to identify them, apparently. Higher value product so producers who get enough of them will go to the extra trouble of sorting them.
