I had a now-deceased and very dear friend who was a vegetarian, not a full-fledged vegan. His hypocritical view was that it was OK to eat things like cheese, milk products, eggs and any other kind of food which did not harm any animal.
I asked him if he ate eggs. He said, “Yes, it is OK to eat eggs because it does not harm any animal.” I then asked him, “Isn’t eating an egg kind of like eating an abortion?” Man, did he get ANGRY! He almost unfriended me for that one! ;-)
Most commercial eggs are unfertilized, but I still see the humor. I’m not sure the conditions that laying hens are kept in would be considered harmless
