Q: Why did the chicken cross the road? A: To participate in the egg and spoon race.
The results of the race upset an old philosophical cart—showing that the eggs come first! This is bound to ruffle a few feathers, particularly among those most fond of trotting out the chicken or egg dilemma. They’ll probably end up flapping, confused and running round like headless chickens. While others, who always argued that the egg came first, will smugly seize on the tenuous visual evidence provided in the race. Preening themselves, self-satisfied with their ‘proof’ that they will perceive as feathers in their caps.

Call me "cholesterol kid", but I'd rather eat the yokes, whisk the whites into meringues, sit in the middle of a zebra crossing and flick the egg whites at any foolish random headless chickens that might pass my way! In this scene, who cares who comes first!
