Seriously is there a reason why they only sell this stuff for Thanksgiving and X-mas and then its forgotten for the rest of the year?  On a related note how come Liquor stores dont sell alcoholic Egg Nog? |

I'm not a fan of the stuff myself.
did anyone see the Christmas episode of The Office where they went to Benihana and ordered "Nagasakis" which apparently is egg nog mixed with saki. just the thought of that made me gag. lol

I'm guessing the second answer is because it's probably hard to package and preserve. You usually need to drink it pretty soon after mixing.

Because a tiny one-pint bottle of it has FORTY-FIVE grams of fat.
That, and a lot of people don't drink it without the liquor.

The better question would be why's it a beverage. No one outside of Rocky Balboa ( now in theaters) should be DRINKING eggs.

In a word- Shooooo-weeee.
And I'm a dude that likes eggs. scrambled, fried, or part of an Awful House omelette with some scattered hashbrowns. But I'm not fond o' the nog.

But if it is a real drink....bleccccchhhhhh. |

I think it's a preservation/shelf stability issue. Egg nog tastes bad when loaded with chemicals, and it is a distribution nightmare to be shipping tons of paper cartons full of easily contaminated product. If it sold year-round we would see it in the stores all the time, but I am guessing someone took a bath on year-round egg nog and that's why we see it so infrequently.
I hate the stuff myself.

If there's something everyone should know about me by now I will ALWAYS take the easy punchline. It's an addiction really. 12 million Americans suffer from Perpetual Silliness Syndrome. I'm actually trying to start an organization to help those living with the silent pain of PSS just like myself. To donate, just drop your name and credit card # in my PM box. This Christmas, won't you give all you can? Because the next one liner could be on you. A straight line is a terrible thing to waste.

Why is egg nog not available in the summer, you ask?  Because when its so damn hot, milk (and egg nog) IS A BAD CHOICE! |

I used to work at a grocery store where they honest to goodness stocked egg nog 365 days a year. They probably still have it. But then again, this was the same grocery store where my boss would get pissed when I wouldn't put out boxes of fruit snacks that expired in 1998 when it was 2002.
