Woolworths releases $6.90 egg product with a huge twist
Woolworths stores will now be stocking liquid egg products after partnering with Aussie egg brand Sunny Queen.
Customers will notice two new additions to Woolworths’ egg aisle in the coming days, as Sunny Queen’s new Scrambled Egg and Egg White pre-prepped pouches begin hitting shelves.
The new product, which Sunny Queen described as a combination of “convenience, health and nutrition”, is made with 100 per cent Aussie eggs with no artificial colours or flavours, in easy-to-use resealable pouches.
Woolworths customers had mixed reactions to a previous Sunny Queen innovation, where pre-peeled, boiled eggs sparked a fierce debate. However, Sunny Queen is predicting that the liquid eggs will be a hit.
“Products like pre-grated cheese and pre-chopped vegetables have become the norm on tables and used in meal prepping around Australia and as such, will this new way of enjoying and consuming more eggs,” they wrote in a media release.
The liquid egg pouches are also made from recyclable packaging, aiding in Woolworths’ sustainability mission, which has already saved more than 9,000 tonnes of plastic from ending up in landfill since its inception in 2017.
