It's amazing how some folks' thought processes work... I mean where do the store bought eggs come from? Some non-reproducing chicken breed? Manufactured in a test tube? I mean, an egg by definition is an undeveloped "baby"... If it's a chicken egg, it came from a chicken! Doesn't matter WHERE the chicken is physically located
The difference is the eggs produced from an at home flock have come from chickens with substantially better living conditions than most mass produced eggs, and we know what went into our food (eggs) producers (chickens) in the way of no UN-natural substances such as steroids and hormones, antibiotics & pesticides etc. Our home grown eggs are better for us!
Most folks today are so separated from reality and their food source that they really have no comprehension... They buy it in packaging designed to attract their attention, having no idea what it really is, what chemicals it contains, or if it's even good for them or not. It's nice that some folks are "waking up" and trying to go with "organic" and "local" food sources and getting back to more healthy/natural food. Trying to avoid GMOs and synthetic stuff, or mass produced non-healthy foods.
Of course for folks living in big cities, they really don't have the ability to produce their own food. I get it. But they can still do some research and shop smarter, making better choices. Big agribusiness won't survive long doing what they presently do, if nobody buys their products. They will have to change their practices or cease to exist. Of course that's never going to happen until consumers smarten up and become the majority.
Sorry for the soap box. Have a great week!
