I bought some goose eggs at Tibbs, the greengrocers in Teignmouth. Tibbs is a bit of an institution - a 'proper' greengrocers, none of that fancy organic stuff, just a family run business selling honest fruit and veg at good prices, local where possible.
So, after paying for my veg, I was surprised to be asked if I wanted some goose eggs. They were enormous. They were also hidden away behind the scales, and there seemed to be something almost 'under the counter' about the experience. Oh, definitely yes, but decided to just take three rather than six. £1.25 for three seems pretty good value as they are the equivalent to 3-4 normal sized hen eggs. I shall use one in a Victoria Sandwich and the other two as giant fried eggs. The egg from our chicken looks so teensy in comparison.
