Why do we not eat duck eggs?
Online Answer
Duck eggs have 3 times more cholesterol than chicken eggs. This is partly because of their larger overall size, partly because the yolk itself is larger, and partly because duck eggs have a higher fat content. Each duck egg contains 619 milligrams of cholesterol, which is more than twice the daily recommended limit.
