Brainwashed By Big Ag: Dirty Eggs


Introducing a new series I could also call, "I Can't Believe You Just Said That." Please feel free to share your own stories, either by e-mail or in the comments below. They might just become future installments!

My friend Kim told me that recently she had a houseguest who refused to eat the eggs from Kim's pasture-raised, grass-fed chickens. That was because the houseguest only eats white eggs.

Her reason? "Brown eggs are dirty."

  1. My mother threw away the eggs I gave her from our pastured hens, too.

  3. BS!

    That reminds me of a friend telling my Guernsey cow was a bull because she had horns!

    As if an udder looks like a scrotum!

  4. It's pretty amazing to hear what people have to say sometimes. Tells you that we need to keep getting the message out there about real food.

  5. When I showed a visiting friend that the fresh farm eggs I'd just bought included green eggs, she looked at me suspiciously and asked "what are they like inside?" Sigh.

  6. It begs the question: What is it that has separated us from what real food looks, much less tastes, like?
