What I Was trying to do

When egg is put in vinegar for 24 hours clear and bouncy but inside still raw so if drop it still break like a normal egg

The Idea

My idea was to take concept of putting egg in vinegar only do with multiple solutions of vinegar and water

The Experiment

  • 4 glasses to put my mixtures in
  • egg 1 all vinegar
  • Egg 2 ¾ vinegar ¼ water
  • Egg 3 half and half
  • Egg 4 ¼ vinegar and ¾ water
  • kept all in for 24 hours checked every few hours

Note: for egg 1 it is behind 7 and ½ hours so it might not be completely correct.
