    Rick Stein did a test and proved that free ranged > battery eggs. I only buy free range.

    Uhh... I don't usually buy eggs... but I'm guessing I eat the battery kind. I didn't even know there were two types of eggs. Guess I learned something fun and new today. Makes me happy... but that picture you showed, Calliope, does not make me happy.

    She can show you lots more. How cows are killed, and *thinks of other animals* I'm pretty sure piggies don't get treated very well either at some 'farms'.

    Well, i never knew there was such a thing.
    But...i really don't have a clue what i eat??
    I know i don't eat batterys??? WHO does eat batterys?? That's weird.@_@

    But....i'd choose to buy the battery ones. Cos....you know. atleast it makes the deaths of all those chickens worth while. I mean then they didn't die for their eggs to be thrown away cos some crazy fool is gonna eat them!!

    I wonder who first thought of eating an egg. What he/she thinking? "Whatever comes out of this feathered animal, i will consume it!" didn't he find the yellow slop a bit disgusting? Baffles the mind.

    I buy them only at the farmer's market /end lie

    I'm too lazy to check so I just buy them at the store. I doubt the local farms are much of a Battery farmed like egg coot so I assume they are free ranged 'cause people are insane in my province for political correctedness and animal rights activists are insane also. xD *boils some eggs*
    Too big.

    I would love to afford to add free range eggs on to my shopping list but living on 88.10 quid a fortnight is difficult enough without worrying about whether my groceries are organic or free range I have to get whatever is cheapest in the way of food therefore a can of heinz baked beans is a rare treat from the harder less yummy asda smart price ones for me also I buy smart price everything generally (ASDA is the closest supermarket to me so substitute smart price for "exceedingly crap budget range" if you don't live near an ASDA) still can't complain it leaves me with the £18 for a bottle of whisky to see me through 2 weeks and the coke to drink it with is 13p a bottle (2litre) but it does go flat within 2 days of opening no matter how tight you put the cap on.

    Fun fact: According to U.S. law, a chicken product may be labeled as 'Free Range' if the chickens are allowed access to the outdoors for at least 5 minutes a day. The difference between 'free range' and 'New York City apartment' could be a chicken sized hole in the cage that they can't even get to.

    <strike>Food for thought.</strike>
    <strike>Chew on that one for a while.</strike>

    I can't escape the food puns!

    Um, animals have been eating eggs since long before we were around.
