    Yes I have, but that's because a piece of the shell somehow got into my boiled egg.

  • Yep.   Calcium is important for all plants and often depleted from soils.

  • No, not my thing I am afraid. I have cooked them, ground them and spread them among plants to try to prevent slug damage.. but I wouldn't like the texture..

  • Never thought of it. Normally they go into the compost for the vegie garden.
    But now you''ve mentioned it, I'll try crushing them to a powder in the mortar and pestle and adding them into soups and stews.
    Not a bad idea at all,
    Thank you.
