Ug. That stuff is disgusting. I wonder how we ever drank it before- it just tastes sour and plastic-y. I can only imagine the same for eggs though thankfully I haven't had to buy any for a few years. Oh, and did you notice that now the FDA says they need MORE power and authority to prevent such horrible contamination? And just WHO are they going to crack down on??? They'll raise taxes and dump it all into a system that flat out isn't working. Maybe they'll just insist that all eggs be cooked right out of the chicken. Lets just set the poor birds straight on the frying pan. They couldn't be any more miserable than they are already! I love this country but sometimes its maddening!!!Homesteading Mommyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00883188912689929377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1220057250271426855.post-13750829245796938292010-08-23T20:39:38.239-04:002010-08-23T20:39:38.239-04:00To echo your friends' experiences, store-bough...To echo your friends' experiences, store-bought eggs started making me nauseous a few years ago - even the smell is sickening when they're cooking. <br /><br />We occasionally have a chance to buy free-range farm eggs from a friend of a friend, and they're wonderful - they smell delicious as they're cooking and I can eat them without a hint of uneasiness.Bill Whitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17764579160852643673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1220057250271426855.post-30642498157348391002010-08-23T12:58:08.229-04:002010-08-23T12:58:08.229-04:00I concur.

The taste is unbelievable. There is no substitute for locally grown foods particularly if they are "organic" and the livestock humanely treated.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14239352325133562116noreply@blogger.com
