Discerning shoppers bored by the standard hen egg can now buy massive emu eggs at Waitrose - for an eye-watering £23.99 per item.
Currently in season, the emu egg is the equivalent of 12 normal eggs and can take up to 90 minutes to cook.
They are described by their supplier Clarence Court as 'a touch milder' in taste than a hen egg, with a 'fluffier' texture.





The eggs are not available all year round as emus lay their eggs through the winter months - on average one egg every three days.
Clarence House said: 'They also boast a high ratio or yolk to white, nearly half white/half yolk, allowing extraordinary results when used for baking cakes.


'Great used in an omelette or enjoyed as scrambled egg, prepare as you would using hen eggs. Also brilliant hardboiled and sliced for fantastic twist on the traditional egg sandwich.'
A spokesperson for Waitrose told The Mirror: 'They say you can’t make an omelette without breaking a few eggs. But there is one on sale in Waitrose that is so large it can easily make four omelettes.'
Despite its pricey image, upmarket Waitrose recently topped the table for the best supermarket to buy own-brand items.
Discount chain Aldi was a close second in the 'best buy' league of 2015 compiled by consumer champion, Which?
Nearly one in two products researchers tested from Waitrose were worthy of a Which? best buy award in 2015, higher than any other supermarket.
The consumer group tested more than 160 supermarket products in 2015 to name the best food, drink, cleaning products, batteries and sunscreens and advise shoppers which ones to leave on the shelf.
Waitrose and Aldi both gained best buy recommendations for own-brand drinks in 2015. Waitrose was also awarded best buys for food, while Aldi excelled in tests of household cleaning products.

Epic drama War and Peace is made longer as producers extend final to cram in an ‘enormous amount of suffering’ and warn fans to watch with a packet of tissues

Epic drama War and Peace is made EVEN longer: Producers extend tonight's final to cram in an 'enormous amount of suffering' and warn fans to watch with a packet of tissues
Finale tonight of BBC's adaption of Tolstoy's epic drama War and Peace
Producers have extended the final to resolve the stories of main characters
Viewers warned there'll be 'no Hollywood ending' and to have tissues ready


The BBC's lavish adaption of Tolstoy's epic War and Peace has gripped the nation with its heart-wrenching scenes, breathtaking sets and star studded cast.
So fans will be delighted to hear the BBC has granted an extension to the finale of the lavish six-part serialisation, set to be aired this evening.
The denouement of the Russian period drama will be extended by some 20 minutes, in order to resolve the stories of the main characters Natasha, Prince Andrei and Pierre, while packing in 'an enormous amount of suffering'.




The show's producer told The Telegraph there would be 'no Hollywood ending', and advised audiences to have a tissue at the ready as the thrilling drama comes to an end.
According to The Telegraph, this is understood to be the first time the BBC has granted a last-minute extension to a Sunday night drama.


'The BBC have been very generous and allowed us that bit of extra time,' Producer Julia Stannard told Hannah Furness of the Telegraph.
'I hope the audience will feel its a bit of a treat on Sunday night. It's an episode of extreme emotions. I'd really tell everybody to have a box of tissues.
'What's important is that it feels very real; there are no Hollywood endings here.'
Millions have been gripped by War and Peace, resulting in huge ratings for the BBC.



In the tear-jerking final scenes, viewers will see a two-year-old dog called Samba stealing the show.
The cross-breed was found in a rescue centre in Lithuania.
In deeply emotive scenes, the dog comes to the aid of her owner Platon, a lowly soldier in the Napoleonic Wars, as he lies injured in the fierce Russian winter.
Samba, given the name Sashenka in the show, even gets a higher billing in the credits than Tuppence Middleton, who plays the scheming Helene.
Scriptwriter Andrew Davies, who adapted Tolstoy’s masterpiece for television, said: ‘I think perhaps I made a little bit more of the dog than there is in the book because I am a great dog-lover myself.’
Tolstoy did not name the dog, so Davies picked Sashenka after a romantic ballad sung by Russian troops.



The writer also accepted that some viewers would care more about the fate of the dog than the human characters, but added: ‘I have no problem with that. I just want viewers to be swept up in the emotion of it all.’
Audiences will also see what happens to the dashing Prince Andrei (James Norton), Natasha Rostova (Lily James) and Pierre (Paul Dano).
The final episode of War and Peace will be on BBC One at 9pm tonight.
