No, Mr. Jackson, I expect you to diet. Wait, this isn’t about that other misread thread in which I think they’re talking about eating 30 min eggs? ---

I read it as: Who wants 30 mini eggs? So, hummingbird eggs? Or even insect or spider eggs? ---

I think @EinsteinsHund discovered a loophole Luke totally could have exploited. The bet never specified that they had to be _chicken_ eggs. ---

True, but being in prison I think coming up with 50 hummingbird eggs would have been a bit tricky. ---

Surely, for eggs 48 would be a rounder number than 50. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/misread-thread-titles/796093.md?page=104)
