Park District officials are enlisting people to help locate nests of goose eggs as part of an expanded program aimed at downsizing the population of the aggressive park-fouling birds.

It's true, they do make a mess. The geese, I mean. And I suppose the eggs do too. Back in the day a certain nationally well-known company added a picturesque pond to its brand new Chicago-area office campus and after a few years it was almost impossible to get near the place for the awful smell. I imagine they weren't the only ones.
So eat up, folks. You're not eating eggs, you're saving geese. According to the Humane Society's Diane Webber,
"It's much more humane than rounding up the geese and gassing them."
