Ok let me clarify.
Eggs that are leaking or cracked will not pass USDA standards for human consumption. Now even though we break them by machine it makes no difference.
These eggs are put aside and at the end of each shift they are run through and then the machines are cleaned and sterilized. The liquid eggs then are loaded into a tanker and we take them back to our drying facility where they are dried to flakes for use in pet foods.
Some days we don't have enough to fill a tank and other days we may get 3 loads.
The term inedible is what the USDA calls them even though they would be perfectly fine to use for cooked products.
