Dumbest Things People Have Said About Your Chickens/Eggs/Meat

Poop them eggs right out. Backyard or crammed in a shed your choice.

I still don't get it.
Look how pretty that is. I'd say that's probably the prettiest place our food we eat comes from.

Store bought from crammed in a building or backyard, free range, so on, your choice.

Actually, I wonder if some fruit IS artificially colored...maybe not cherries, but I can't tell you how surprised I was to discover that oranges aren't very orange. Most of the oranges from even grafted orange trees here in Cameroon have either a dark green or a modeled orange and green skin. I have a hard time eating uniformly orange-skinned oranges when I'm in the US. They look artificial to me now. Same with lemons and other citrus. (This should have been attached to post # 7886 but I messed up on the posting). Sigh.

Some Produce is genetically modified to look ripe when they are not so they are kind of artificially colored for sure some times.

Most oranges imported from tropical countries will be exposed to ethelyne gas, which will remove the chlorophyll that make the oranges green so that they turn orange.

oh I am sure some stuff is... I just left out part of my story the boy thought that his mom bought healthy cherries because they were very dark red instead of light. So he thought that people just make them lighter and more colored.

I think maraschino cherries ARE dyed, aren't they?

I had to make my chickens some chicken noodle soup last night after I opened TWO bags of bad feed. It. Was. Nasty. When we took it back, one girl was like "smells fine to me, that's what feed is supposed to smell like".

No, chicken feed should not smell like a dumpster used to throw away dead animals.

Yeah that reminds me of the bag of scratch i opened once that the grain was covered in maggots

and then the feedstore wouldn't let me return it because i had opened the bag.
