Since this weird stuff is manufactured by a "laiterie", I guess they had a lot of "white" leftovers and did not want to just throw them out. Remember that small businesses in France do not use the "pull" tactics used in the US for their products (figuring out the needs of the customers and designing the product accordingly). In France, small businesses cannot afford that, so they sell what they have and see if it sells. (I bet this doesn't)... A lot of recipes are using only the yellow part of the egg.
