The problem is that once it becomes trendy the demand becomes higher, so if they can't be sourced from the UK the likelihood is that eggs will be shipped in from abroad and who's to know whether they're gulls, Sociable Plovers, Bald Ibis or anything else once they're on your plate?I know someone who had them at Marco Pierre White's restaurant this year and he paid a huge price for them. And where large amounts of money are to be made, that's when the problems start.</blockquote>
