Dyeing Easter... Marshmallows?

[elisem]

 Some news and commentary outlet just published a story about how eggs were so expensive right now that Americans were turning from dyeing Easter eggs to dyeing marshmallows or other substitutes. OK, fine, whatever, I thought. And then I got to this sentence:

“This is such a great idea!” one person commented. “No one eats the colored eggs, so these will actually be eaten!” 

What the whatting WHAT?

So I have to ask people. If you grew up dyeing Easter eggs, did you eat the dyed eggs?

We ate them.
We did not deliberately crack them as that would have made knocking them a fraught endeavor. You have to knock your eggs to see whose winning egg is lucky.
