ChihuahuaOfDoom @lemmy.world Am American, my fridge is packed with unwashed eggs. You just can't buy them at the store here. Fortunately my pets poop breakfast.

I second this pet photo tax. I even fixed picture uploads the other day, so no excuse!

Serious question: Why don't Americans like unwashed eggs? Was there a breakout of an illness in the past or?

You're kidding, but you're not wrong. I worked for Whole Foods pre-Amazon and the number of people who returned eggs or flagged me down upon finding a feather was concerning.

I cross posted it! Pushed the button! I even kept your title.
Should I have shared a link to the post instead?
