Manufacturers of paper packaging, which absorbs the liquid, consider this fact as a plus, explaining that the broken egg does not stain the rest ones. But it is necessary to take into account the fact that paper is a “living” environment favorable for the development of microbes, bacteria, etc., therefore, plastic manufacturers believe that in this matter the advantage is on their side: in plastic packaging, the broken egg dries not contributing to the development of bacteria and providing the most hygienic packaging.
