You can definitely eat an egg that has a blood spot in it. Also known as a meat spot, these are caused by a rupture of a blood vessel on the yolk surface when it's formed or by a similar accident in the oviduct wall in the hen's reproductive tract. If you don't want to cook with or eat the blood spot, take the tip of a knife to it and dispose of it. Should you eat it, it won't affect you, as it's safe for human consumption. Turn to Instacart whether you're shopping for eggs for your next baking day or have a big grocery list. Choose the items on your list from the comfort of your home, and let an Instacart shopper go down the aisles for you. Your items will be delivered in as little as 2 hours!
