"Actually it’s not worth eating the eggs that are created by these factory systems. You think its about a penny or a dollar but you’re ingesting garbage with few nutrients and not much value."

Interesting. I never heard this allegation before. Can you provide stats, or a link?

Thanks in advance.

You can go to wall mart and get food that is horribly low in nutrition. Or you can do what we do and hit Whole Foods. We pay twice what the eggs cost at WalMart...but take two dozen and compare.

You will see the amazing difference. The eggs from WM are light hello, like butter, the eggs from WF are dark orange and loaded with nutrients. They cook different.

I have 6 kids and struggle to feed them on a very limited budget. (I work at a church) We spend extra money on the better quality foods and if it means we get less, then so be it.

You wouldn’t put the cheapest gas in your car and ruin your engine. You wouldn’t put the cheapest paint on your house, wear the cheapest clothes...why do we all look for the cheapest food to put in our bodies?

It’s insane. This is why the healthcare system is out of control because the American diet is out of control.

There is nothing that California does that makes me warm and fuzzy, but if you saw ten chickens stuck in a 2 x 3 cage with their beaks cut off because of fighting and open sores on them and then look at them covered in their feces and then....eat one of their eggs? That’s the majority situation of the massive production farm mentality. It’s rally deplorable. It’s like Auschwitz for animals.

I don’t believe that a chicken = human. but I do believe in treating God’s creation with the respect He gave it in creating it!

Go purchase some free range, organic, or cage free eggs and you’ll never eat another dozen from WalMart. For 2 bucks more you get something that is actually nutritionally good for you and treats the animals decently in the process.

NOTE: we actually had a feather in one of our cartons the other day and the kids thought it was awesome.

You can google and find many articles that will go into detail about the value of free range, cage free, eggs. etc. God Bless you and Merry Christmas....Day 10.

Michael
