Aloha Egg Friday.
World Egg Day celebrates eggs and highlighted their versatility and the benefits they bring to people of all ages. The day has a different theme each year, and celebrations are held in countries all around the world. Eggs are nutrient-rich, being high in protein as well as in 13 vitamins and minerals that the body needs, such as choline, vitamin B12, iron, and iodine. They improve brain function, support physical strength and the immune system, and aid with child development. They have a low environmental footprint, being recognized as a "low impact protein source" by the World Resources Institute.
