The top of an egg is the fat side. Discuss.
Discussion
Not you too ๐ญ
When I was a kid, I grew up in a small town that had a very specific (and potentially VERY local) Easter tradition called "Egg Pocking". Some folks also called it "Egg Knocking" but they lived in big houses.
There was a contest on the Town Hall lawn and it was against the rules to use the bottom (or fat side) of the egg against the top (or pointy) side.
So, I'm gonna have to respectfully disagree, friend.
I disagree 
Go set an egg on a table. Then we can talk. ๐

Pointy = front
Fat = back
That's the way they come out. But the chick's head is on the top 
We're not talking about what's inside of an egg, are we?
Yeah, the top is where the air bubble is.
Inconclusive ๐ค
I guess the left side is the top.

That is very much a conclusion.
๐๐คฃ
Now put it in water and see which side is the top.
๐ Nothing landbound stays upright in water.
When the egg is leaving the chicken, it says, "alright, imma head out", and then it leaves pointy end first.
It's just a matter of whether it's going out forwards or backwards.
Technically the air cell is located in the fatter end, and people store eggs to protect the air cell. Wide part down. So the skinny part is the top.
Growing up raising chickens, we always stored eggs fat side up, so the air bubble was at the top, and the eggs would last longer.
That is interesting. I wonder why they package them the other way then. You mean Big Egg doesn't care about our egg quality and freshness?
This is true.
If they did they wouldn't wash the protective coating off of them. Farm eggs, stored correctly, last weeks without refrigeration.
