Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays! Just Eggs (00:00) Eggs, packed with protein, are easy-to-make morning boosters. You can scramble them, fry them, or wrap them up inside a warm tortilla. But a company called Just says that they’ve made an egg that is better for your health. And they didn’t need a chicken to do it.
