I noticed in the gardening section of a Saturday newspaper recently, that one can buy crushed 
shells from Harrods 
.
Wonder how Harrods obtain them 
. Do people save up all their breakfast shells until they have a decent sackful, then sell 'em to Harrods

Catering organisations can buy 'liquid eggs' from suppliers. These are eggs sold by volume without shells so the supplier removes the shells and packs the eggs in tubs. Cake and biscuit manufacturers use huge quantities of eggs either ready shelled or they shell them, either way large quantities of shells are available.
We keep our own until we have a tray full and pop them in the oven when we are roasting say potatoes to sterilize them.
