Have you ever wondered where your phone is because you wanted to look something up, while holding said phone in your hands, reading about something that made you want to look something up?
Yeah

My spouse and I were in a long distance relationship at first.
I lost count of the times she started looking for her phone to send me a picture of something while we were on the phone.

What’s bothering me is not how much that hits home, but the fact that Americans keep their eggs in the fridge …

No, I mean some people do, but you don’t need to. Because EU eggs are from vaccinated hens there’s very little fear about salmonella. It’s perfectly safe to keep them at room temperature for several weeks and in fact they’re sold unrefrigerated at every store. It’s also perfectly common to use raw eggs, e.g. for home made mayonnaise etc.
US eggs are washed and chlorined since the hens are not vaccinated, and once you wash them you need to refrigerate them. US still has like 150k cases per year of salmonella poisoning from eggs alone. Germany has like 10-15k cases in total.
(I also don’t get why people don’t understand they don’t go bad for weeks at room temperature. I mean what do you think the chicken that normally would grow in these eggs eat while growing? Rotten egg?🤪)

That makes a lot of sense, even for the eggs that we get from our family farm goes to the fridge (even though my grandparents used to leave them outside) just because that’s what we normally do here, most fridges even come with a egg basket inside.

we still keep eggs in the fridge here in sweden, just no reason not to do so. They still keep longer that way.

Sure, hey, put in your fridge whatever you want. I knew people who kept their onions in there. Maybe you have a walk in fridge with endless space, I use my fridge for things that actually need to be refrigerated. And if you can’t get through a six pack of eggs in three weeks, why bother buying them at all?

Are you a butter fridged person or not?
- yA3xAKQMbq ( @yA3xAKQMbq@lemm.ee ) English2•1 year ago
No, not unless it’s really hot, but I also got one of those french water cooled butter dishes, so that helps a lot.

just no reason not to do so
Space. My fridge is crowded as is without unnecessarily keeping eggs there. But if you have the room then ye
A few days ago I couldn’t find bread for a moment when I had it right in front of me till it completely disappeared. I carefully checked different rooms to see if I took it somewhere but it wasn’t there. Then I opened the fridge and it was there. lol
