I find that weird, because I normally just use like 2 eggs to make my cakes. Although maybe it's because I'm using cake mix(I don't really like those kinds tbh). But anything more than 10 seems a bit excessive unless you're making a huge cake.

The amount of eggs depends heavily on the number of people you intend to feed with the cake. Although a good rule of thumb is that you always want 1.5 to 2 eggs in the filling per one in the crust.

Purpelia does not reflect my actual world views. In fact, the vast majority of Purpelian cannon is meant to shock and thus deliberately insane. I just like playing with the idea of a country of madmen utterly convinced that everyone else are the barbarians. So play along or not but don't ever think it's for real.

That's pretty tame, all things considered. You could just have 3 eggs an hour for a good 20 hours. It would suck, but knowing 60 mil would be coming in would definitely make it manageable.

I'd probably throw up after, but hey, 30 mil, then.

I saw a video on how fly eggs looked like rice grains and I didn’t have an appetite to eat any of those wheat things for like 3 days.

Boil them, encase in gelatin, swallow whole without ever having to taste or feel them in your mouth. Problem solved.

24 hours from Breakfast to Breakfast is 7 meals plus snacks (Breakfast -Brunch - Lunch-Dinner-Nightcap-Midnight-Breakfast) 8 eggs per meal scrambled, in icecream, smoothies, salads and boiled as snacked on - I think I could do it in 24 hours.

The fact that I don't have to eat the shells is even better. I would do this in a heartbeat, and would course it over one day. I would get up early and eat a hardy breakfast of fried eggs, over hard. Maybe some egg salad sandwiches throughout the day, and some boiled eggs rolled in salt. Scrambled eggs for after lunch, and finish it up with more fried eggs, over hard.

Not only could I easily do this, I would enjoy it.

Some omelettes, some french toast, some fried egg sandwiches, some over medium, some sunny side up, some scrambled, some poached.

During the week I don't eat breakfast, so most days I eat none. On weekend mornings it could be anywhere between 2 to 6 eggs.

That’s pretty good

It’s a solid source of protein I think?

A typical hen egg weighs 55g ... something like this should be in the challenge ... while an ostrich egg weighs 1.4 kilos.

The equivalent 60 ostrich eggs challenge would be ... 1,500 hen eggs.

And bear in mind that ostrich eggs are expensive; if you fail you'll be broke as well as sick.

That challenge would be impossible - that amount of food does not fit in a human stomach.
True, laxatives and induced vomiting (still 30 million) night help * a bit* ; but not sufficient.

Also you could never visit a zoo again. Being attacked by an ostrich is no joke.
