    This reminds me of how when I go shopping for eggs in the supermarket, they are sold in sizes of Large, X-Large, and Jumbo. Nobody wants to face the humiliation of buying a carton of small eggs.

      It is my understanding that eggs graded as small or medium are usually sold to food factories. Think about an outfit like Jimmy Dean, how many tons of scrambled eggs do they make to a batch for all those frozen microwavable sausage and egg biscuits? Who cares how many individual eggs they have to crack?
