A similar article hit the front page of Reddit a few days ago. These don’t always have the best research.
In Japan, eggs are washed and are generally not refrigerated, even though articles like this will often say they are.
In Denmark eggs are always found in the refrigerator in super markets and you often see feathers and other dirt on the egg shells, so they aren’t washed to any useful degree.
So the cause and effect between washing and refrigeration is not globally recognized.
- Doxin 5y agoNote that some brands of eggs have a machine to stick a feather to one egg every so many cartons. Just seeing a feather doesn't mean the egg isn't washed.
- schwartzworld 5y agoWhat? Why?
- Doxin 5y agoTo make the consumer think the egg is so fresh from the chicken that the feathers are still stuck to it I suppose. I'm sure it got A/B tested at some point.
