  • Yes in europe and other places eggs generally arent washed before being sold. And often they aren’t even sold in a refridgerator. this is not a problem, as the inside of the egg is protected in three ways: A cell-membrane around the white, a hard calcitic shell with proteins and breathing holes and a coating that makes the calcite less permeable for water and bacteria.

    In the USA and Japan and other places, they think this is gross and industrially wash their eggs before they go to the consumer. This removes the outermost layer partially, allowing for ingress of bacteria, thus the eggs need to be refrigerated to remain safe.








  • I have found this short video increadibly unpleasing. I do not wish to look at it for a single second more. But from what I remember, not a single one of these things happened to me like described.

    I have downloaded loadsa images, but only to a level, where I’ll eventually be able to “take care” of them. I have listened to some music quite a lot, but I have not burned through it in a single day.

    Mabye the creator of the video was using a bit of the good old overdramatization? Then again anything is possible.
