How is this figurative language?

"... little yolks inside the gelatin whites." I don't get it.

honey, I wasn't trying to care about you, I just suggested an explanation to your comment. One of my friends like to suck on salt when she has it. Give it a shot

well in general terms, it's a metaphor

the whites of eggs aren't actually gelatin but are being referred to as such. since "like," "as," or similar phrases aren't being used, it's a metaphor.

I believe it's something to do with the Asians' struggle to survive in a white world.

Anyways, I'm a science major.
