Breakfast/Brunch Semi-Finalists Announced in the 2017 EB "Foodtography" Contest

Cedar Knolls, N.J., May 22, 2017– Eggland’s Best (EB) is excited to announce the top five Breakfast/Brunch category semi-finalist photos in the 2017 Eggland’s Best “Foodtography” Contest. From unique bread pudding combinations to dessert-inspired breakfast sandwiches, the semi-finalist photos represent the most passionate EB fans who also happen to have an eye for taking beautiful photos of their delicious and healthy Eggland’s Best dishes.

“To celebrate 25 years of providing the only egg that provides better taste, better nutrition, better variety and better freshness, we asked our fans to submit mouthwatering photos of their favorite EB dishes,” said Charlie Lanktree, President and CEO of Eggland’s Best. “The quality of entries was incredible. We continue to be inspired by the creativity and passion of our fans and hope this will inspire others to create and share their own unique and nutritious Eggland’s Best creations.”

From now through June 4th, EB is calling on fans to vote for their favorite Breakfast/Brunch category photo to help determine which of the semi-finalists will move on to the finalist round for a chance to compete for the Grand Prize. Later, fans will have the opportunity to vote on semi-finalists in appetizer, main course, and dessert categories as well. The Breakfast/Brunch semi-finalists:

  • Jessica G. (New Jersey) – The Ultimate Breakfast Sandwich
  • Juliana E. (Florida) – Waffle Thyme Omelet
  • Lisa K. (Pennsylvania) – BLT Brunch Salad
  • Sarah C. (Illinois) – Overnight French Toast Bread Pudding
  • Thomas A. (North Carolina) – Polka Dot Eggs

Once finalists from each category are selected and announced, fans will once again have the chance to vote for the ultimate Eggland’s Best Foodtographer! The Grand Prize winner will be awarded $5,000 and a year’s supply of EB eggs, and finalists will receive $1,000 and a year’s supply of EB eggs.

“Entries in the Breakfast/Brunch category certainly shook up the competition with some unique twists, proving that you can easily create a dish that both looks amazing and is packed with nutrition,” said Registered Dietitian and Nutritionist Dawn Jackson Blatner. “The versatility and superior nutrition of Eggland’s Best eggs make them a natural and smart addition to any dish, which is why they are the only eggs I recommend to my clients, and serve to my family.”

Compared to ordinary eggs, EB eggs contain six times more vitamin D, 25 percent less saturated fat, more than double the Omega-3s, ten times more vitamin E and more than double the vitamin B12. EB eggs are also an excellent source of vitamin B2 (Riboflavin) and vitamin B5. EB’s superior nutritional profile is due to its proprietary all-vegetarian hen feed that contains healthy grains, canola oil and a wholesome supplement of rice bran, alfalfa, sea kelp and Vitamin E. In addition, independent testing has revealed that Eggland’s Best eggs have stronger shells than ordinary eggs, which leads to less breakage and helps them stay fresher longer than ordinary eggs.
