The Secret of Eggs in a PET Bottle! An Old Solution I Learned from My Grandma!

Why This Works

Eggs kept whole inside the shell degrade over time, especially if exposed to fluctuating temperatures. By cracking and sealing them in an airtight container, you’re removing one of the biggest culprits of spoilage: oxygen. Plus, storing them in a uniform liquid form makes it super convenient for baking, cooking, or meal prep.

Tips from Grandma:

• Always use fresh eggs — don’t try this with eggs that are already nearing expiration.
• If freezing, beat the eggs first for best texture when thawed.
• Write how many eggs are in each bottle for easy tracking.

Final Thoughts

In an age where everything is disposable, there’s something satisfying about bringing back timeless kitchen hacks like this one. My grandma didn’t have a fancy fridge or an app to tell her if her food was still good — she just had common sense and a few brilliant tricks up her sleeve. The egg-in-a-PET-bottle method is one of those tricks I’ll never forget — and now, neither will you.

So next time you find yourself with too many eggs on hand, remember: Grandma had the solution all along. 🥚💡
