It is widely believed that plastic eggs are just rumours, but one cannot deny the fact that the complaints on the sale of plastic eggs are constantly being lodged.

A person named John, from Marthandam of Kanyakumari District, had bought 15 country eggs from a shop nearby. This morning, while preparing lunch for his school-going kids, he found that one of the eggs contain plastic yolk. The eggs were also found to be odourless. John was shocked to the core and he enquired the shopkeeper on the same. 

The shopkeeper told him that the eggs were bought from the same merchant, from whom he would get eggs every time. Following this, John tested the other eggs for adulteration too and found that there were issues with the other eggs as well.

A complaint was lodged with the Food Safety officer. After examining the eggs, the officer assured to take immediate action.
