This package contains 1 color egg dye: Red
One package makes 50 eggs total.
Hard-boiled eggs, dyed deep red to symbolize the redeeming blood of Christ, are a Greek (or Eastern Orthodox) tradition at Easter. The egg is further symbolic in that it is an emblem of the Resurrection: it contains life motionless; in like manner, after being motionless in the grave, the resurrected come forth with new life. On Easter and the following week, the general greeting "Christos Anesti!" (Christ is Risen!) and the reply "Alethos Anesti!" (Truly He is Risen!) are heard among the faithful.

This is the best experience I've had via the internet. The person I dealt with was wonderful, knowledgeable, and very helpful. And one other thing very patient with me a 73 year old woman who knows very little about computers and internet.
He even saved me money,. And we all like that. I recommend them highly and I will certainly use them again.

I ordered the packets of red egg dye and they were shipped to me in a timely fashion so that I can dye my eggs on Holy Thursday as by the tradition for this procedure following the Greek Orthodox Easter. The directions to dye the eggs are described on the back of the packets in detail.
I believe this was a very good purchase. And the Greek Store I ordered from is very reliable.
