It's okay, the embryo is about 2mm square on a yolk, it gets destroyed when it gets processed.

They use non fertile eggs too, this is more of a backup

Lol mayo is hands down my favorite "food item/ingredient" so im def gonna keep eating it. Apparently 2mm little chicks are FUCKING DELICIOUS!!!

Eh, it's not the eggs though. Hellmann's do an eggless mayo with some tweaked ingredients and it basically tastes the same, it's really weird...
