why do American insist on 'washing' and refrigerating eggs?
stop using pesticides on the eggs and you wouldn't need to wash them and then refrigerate the egg.
Literally nowhere else in the world are eggs sold washed or chilled. USA has absolutely been jewed by the egg merchants. It's the food equivalent of circumcision.

>keep your egg in a fridge, goyim, and throw it away after 5 days and buy news ones or you will get sick, goyim.

Here in europe eggs are sold as they come straight from the chicken, no washing, no pesticides, no refridgration. And you can keep them for weeks and they keep for weeks.

In america they 'wash' the egg which removes the protective layer from the shell and pushes salmonella into the inside of the egg. It really crazy

I wont wash store bought eggs but we washed them growing up because they had shit on them from our chickens. I've never thought about not refrigerating them though. We go through 12 a week so I guess we wouldnt need to but what's the harm in refrigerating

You should wash eggs because they come out of the same hole the chicken uses to shit and piss. Less chance of food poisoning by contamination if the eggs are already washed. Having to refrigerate them after washing is a minor inconvenience compared to the benefits.

>The humble hen egg is designed to be an ideal incubator and nursery for a growing chick embryo. The shell is porous – typically around 7,000 pores in the calcium carbonate shell allow air in to the embryo. For this reason it is not recommended that eggs are washed if floor-laid as bacteria can be introduced via this route. There are strict regulations governing egg production within the egg industry and eggs are not allowed to be sold as first quality if dirty or damaged in any way. Hens utilise their own stored calcium if their diet is deficient and need 4g of calcium to produce one egg.

Literally illegal to sell unwashed eggs in the USA.
Look up the FDA regulations.
All eggs are treated with chemicals and then get a chemical 'wash'. That's why you eggs are white and sold refrigerated. The washing process removes the outer shell.

mate, do some research.
the science has disproven this years ago.
occurrences of salmonella poisoning are significantly higher in USA than they are anywhere else in the world.

You don't eat the fucking shell, do you?
But by 'washing' the egg it pushes salmonella into the inside of the egg. This has long been known. And it's the sole reason why USA eggs must be refrigerated and have a shorter shelf life. All because americans can't be trusted not to eat the shell and refuse to keep their chickens in disease free conditions.

Ive never heard of washing eggs before and what does matter if we refrigerate them? They last longer that way.

[Anonymous No.14568740]

I think when OP says 'washing' what he means is disinfecting process which is mandatory for all eggs under FDA guidelines. The eggs get a chemical bath designed to reduce bacteria on the shell. But this chemical destroys the cuticle (as someone pointed out this is why eggs are often white here), which renders the contents of the egg vulnerable. Therefore the egg has to be chilled. Some producers even apply a synthetic coating to the egg.
Biggest down side is that the egg must remain chilled until consumed, else condensation will form and bacteria will enter.
Second down side is that there is zero impotence for egg producers to reduce prevalence of disease in hens.
This was all done in response to mass salmonella outbreaks in the 1980s.
In europe, they chose a difference approach, reduce salmonella in hens.
This is one thing the europoors got right. Salmonella outbreaks from eggs are virtually non-existent in most of europe, despite the fact they don't wash or chill their eggs. Here, salmonella outbreaks from eggs are still a regular occurrence, since all it takes is for the egg to be stored at the wrong temperature and salmonella will form.

washing has no effect on the color you mouth breather, even the brown eggs are washed. egg color is dependent on the chicken breed the egg came from

I mean the only reason why Hitler had a war machine was American finance and industrial aid. Guys like Henry Ford showed them around his factory, gave them the schematics, and sold them the equipment and he wasn't even the only one. We were simply cleaning up our own mess (as per usual). And the thing is that's what America does today all around the globe

Well when you have chickens you need to wash the eggs with water and soap, because they come covered in poop which could give you diseases. Those perfect white eggs from factory farms do the extreme version of this. The eggs do not need to be refrigerated until they are washed because of their natural protective coating

this regulation applies only to farms with more than like 10k egg laying hens, which is likely more than exist

I can go pay more for organic free range, whatever the fuck eggs at the store from a dozen different suppliers or the farmers market, or drive to the countryside and pay some guy directly or trade him for some meade or something. I can also pay like 10 cents for a carton of the evil demonwash whatever.
