I was told when I was about 5 or 6 years old that if after my grandma put the egg shells in the bin, and I touched the little bit of white left in the cracked egg half, that I would get warts all over my fingers. I am now almost 20, and until a few months ago had avoided empty egg shells incase I caught warts - my fiance, thought I was an idiot.
