I love the idea of using natural materials and foods to dye eggs, but I have a question: can you still eat the eggs afterward, or do they absorb too much flavor from the coffee, onions, cranberries, etc.? We usually eat all of our eggs later in egg salad, since I don't want to waste the food, so I'm wondering whether that would still be possible with this dyeing procedure. If the eggs would taste weird, perhaps blowing the shells to get all of the raw egg out first, then having scrambled eggs while you dye your eggshells, would be an option. =) Thanks for the green Easter ideas!
