    Eggs actually don’t need to be refrigerated outside of the US. The reason why we have to is because the government requires eggs to be washed so they lose the protective coating that prevents them from going bad quickly.

      Yeah, I alluded to that in my original comment. I don’t know if bleaching the shell is an issue other than for storage but it wouldn’t surprise me.

      It is sad how much we’ve allowed Agribusiness to decide what we eat and how we live.
