At least he's trying to eat salad, which is more than I can say for a lot of this board.

Here, have some Tabbouleh (grain and vegetables tossed in dressing essentially).

>They refrigerate eggs
Our eggs are scrubbed and chemically treated so they have to be because the protective layer is broken.
>and butter
Depends. It melts in a lot of our climates, and most people don't go through a full pound at a time, so they put it in the fridge and use as needed. Every place sells butter dishes and sometimes bells, a lot of people own them. So some of us keep keep a stick or less out at room temp.
>cook all their meat well done
No. That's some regional and generation retardation. And even then they're starting to learn better thanks to the miracles of communication technology, and realizing their food doesn't have to turn out like shit. Had a 60 year old southerner tell me he stopped cooking his steaks past medium-rare when he realized they were safe and all it did was shrink them.
>the second a bottle of milk reaches the expiration date
Grocers have a bad tendency to just not refrigerate the milk. During restocking shitty establishments will just leave racks of the things out in the aisles to tend to some other task. And I'm sure there's a jump in bacteria when the foodservice perveyers do similar shit. I've had cartons of milk expired one week before expiration date. Naturally you should notice. But if it's tangy and you drink it anyways, and you're one of those people that drinks 24 oz a day (there are a lot of people that do), you're going to be shitting.

Bomb squads are not called, fire departments have trained officers.

Didn't take a picture of tonight, but I grabbed last night as a food shame pic.

Tabbouleh with steak.
