Should cracked eggs be thrown out?

    If you open a box of eggs and one is already cracked, is it a bad idea to go ahead and cook it? Even if nothing has spilled out?

    Yes, a very bad idea. Unless your fond on food poisoning !

    If nothing has spilled out, you should be safe enough using the eggs in cakes, or dishes that cook the egg thoroughly.

    I buy cracked eggs the whole time in my local farmers market specifically for baking, as they are much cheaper and are not badly cracked.

    Do not use for a meringues etc - but throw into a cake and you'll be fine.
