This is a real thing I do. It feels weird if the weight of the carton isn’t evenly balanced when I take it from the fridge.
I kind of have both, just learn to enjoy the beauty of symmetry.
Tend to get eggs in a box of six: front corners first, then the rear corners and then the centre eggs.
I’m not in America so my eggs can live outside the fridge, it’s mostly about making sure someone doesn’t knock the box and crack an egg accidentally.
now kick your egg balancing autism into high gear to start balancing electrons on atoms to discover new elements.
or balance the number of molecules to create a new type of crystal that cures cancer.
or…you get the picture.
They clearly don’t get any other picture. No one balances eggs… EVER
I balance eggs…
Huh… I do this too. I like the box to be balanced when I take it outta the fridge.
I always take them out symmetrically and front row first, if possible.
There’s another way to egg?

I do also balance the carton. Not always absolute symmetry but don’t want someone to drop them.
This is the way!
When I eat grapes, I like to eat two at a time, and end with an even number. I throw away the last grape if it’s not an even number. Why? #JustAutieThings.
I guess a three-egg omelette is out of the question then
When it must be inbalanced due to the number of eggs, as long as the extra weight is towards the hinge then it retains the safety benefits of being balanced.
Since I get eggs while holding the carton I tend to take from the ‘outside’ row first, starting at the ends, and work my way into the center by the hinge. This puts the weight in the hand I’m using to hold the carton and works well even for 18 and 24 count cartons. If I set the carton down before yoinking eggs, I would go for more balance.
I think with this carton you can get a weight-balanced arrangement for any number of eggs except one and seventeen. So whatever you do at the start and end of the carton, it better involve at least two eggs
Apparently seating on aircraft is allocated similarly.
