Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.A British retailer is to begin selling boxes of double-yolk eggs.
Marks and Spencer will start selling the packs of six free range eggs this weekend at £2.75 each.
Around 0.1 per cent of eggs have double yolks in them; the oddity is caused by a hormonal imbalance in young chickens.
The eggs for the special boxes will be sourced using a process known as “candling” – shining a bright light on each egg to show the silhouette of the yolks inside.
M&S product developer Ali Rodham said: “We're really excited to be selling double yolkers. We think they're cracking, and we're sure our customers will too.
“Perfect for people who think the yolk is the best bit of the egg, double yolkers are not only delicious, but they are healthy too.”
The yolk of chicken eggs is rich in vitamins B12, B6, A, K, E and folate; yolks are one of the few foods to naturally contain vitamin D.
Yolks are also rich in nutrients such as calcium, magnesium, potassium, sodium, selenium and iron.
