Are the Chinese manufacturing fake chicken eggs

Are the Chinese manufacturing fake chicken eggs and passing them off as real? “Although the faked eggs looked practically the same as real ones, the consumer smelled chemicals when cooking the eggs. The egg yolk dispersed quickly when it was mixed with the egg white, and the colour was pale. No flavour could be tasted after cooking. According to the officials of the National Bureau of Industry and Commerce, the faked eggs were made from chemicals.” (via cyn-c)

Update: Turns out the story is a fake. (thx, jeff)
