B/c a real farmer would eat omelettes cooked by his wife that came from his chickens, thus the farmer coming to the diner to get eggs means that the wife is gone
Because he had just eaten Humpty Dumpty
I've heard this one before, but why was he BEHEADED? that part doesn't make sense.
Executed sure... strung up on a noose... sure. Firing squad, lethal injection... whatever.
So why beheaded??
My guess is that he went in there and tried to steal a omelete with his rifle and killed some people with the bullets he had. He was then arrested and beheaded for attempted robbery and murder.
the answer can be very simple, he was on a search list or his shirt was full of blood or his wife sent them an information
there can be tons of possibilities
i would think that maybe a farmer woulldn't go and BUY an omelete when he can just make one at home.
But i dont get how that would get him arrester if he just ran out of eggs
But a farmer WOULDNT run out of eggs--I think thats the key to this. I havent figured it out, but maybe he used the chickens/eggs to kill someone. Then he couldnt use them himself. Since they knew the chicken/eggs were used to kill someone and the farmer ought to have good eggs at home, they knew it was probably him. Have no idea how since poisoning seems like a long-shot.
Or maybe for some reason THEY knew something about the eggs that the murderer would not know.
Or maybe they knew he WASNT a farmer since he would have his own eggs, and therefore knew he was some type of imposter.
As with many of these riddles, even something silly could be technically valid, like at a crime scene there was traces of omelets, or someone had seen the perp eating an omelet. So they knew the murderer liked omelets.
But I think the answer has to have something to do with the fact that he's a farmer and he is ordering an omelet. If the answer is arbitrary, like he has a bloody shirt, then it a stupid riddle. And I hope its not a pun, because I dont like puns.
hmm...you have different answers for this question...one of you is very close to the answer...but i will give you a hint for the answer
CLUE: the reason why he was arrested and executed has nothing to do with the omelette but by his status...he was executed by the guilottine
the story happened somewhere in france long time ago...
hope you really get a hint!
is it becuz he killed chickens? becuz if he was a farmer he had chickens wich means he has eggs wich means he can make omelettes but if he killed the chickens the ommelets are gone, maybe it was illegal to kill chickens then???
is it becoze he killed someone in the restaurant by passing by the counter without his knowledge his tool killed someone in the restaurant,
also another hint is that the farmer will pay the ordered omelette at the exact amount and therefore has nothing to do with stealing or murdering or whatsoever...it has also nothing to do with the creation of the omelette
the story happened during a time which changed the history of the world forever...
Is it because Marie Antionette said "Let them eat cake?"
Was it because it was the French Revolution and the farmer was royalty and only royalty ordered omelettes? Then rebels came and beheaded him because thats what rebels did to royalty?
cuz the farmer is actually an egg harvester from a lab that harvest human egg cells and he made them egg cells into an omelette. so he got arrested. and this happened to be in a country that still does beheadings. so he got beheaded.
cryogenics, giving delicious omelettes of tomorrow, today...

yeah that is right! the farmer is actually an aristocrat disguised as a farmer...he was escaping death from the revolutionary forces so he disguised as a farmer..however his mistake is that he ordered an omelette which farmers during that time cannot afford to buy...so the manager of the restaurant called the gendarmes (french police) to investigate the farmer and proved that the farmer is actually an aristocrat (maybe a count or duke)...nice one though
it was because the egg was humpty dumpty and the guy killed him.

The farmer was a black man eating in a white only restaurant. Due to the period he was killed for it. A little harsh I say.
Was the answer ever listed? I'm still curious...it's driving me crazy!
is he king louie?
I think i know the answer, its quite simple, the omelette was an EGGsicution Omelette, ive heard they are new at Macdonalds!
