the person telling you that was not an eggspert. the FDA works to keep you safe from salmonella enteritidis, but they wouldn't have the first clue how to grade an egg. only about half of the eggs in the country are graded by USDA (costco has theirs graded, typically).

the minimum salable quality of egg is grade B, anything not meeting that standard must be either broken out and pasteurized or tossed/sent off for animal food.

are YOU some kind of eggspert??

we've funded a long term storage study with some egg scientists, should be published sometime this year. they found that they're safe to eat up even up to around the 6 month mark*. quality declines and it'll lose the ability to do things like hold structure in an angel food cake, for instance, but it won't kill you.

*if held between 34-45F, if the shell and membrane remain intact, if it was properly processed and held at the origin farm, and if the egg remains clean.

Salmonella from raw eggs is kinda bullshit though, right? From what I can see commercially sold eggs are washed so that it won't be on the shells, and the contents are fine if it passes a sniff test?

it was common in the 70s and 80s, and blew up again with the DeCoster deal. hens can be infected with SE and shed that into the contents of the egg, it's very rare but when you're producing ~330-350 million eggs a day, even fractions of a percent mean yeah some get out. the farms continuously test for it in the environment, and if it's found they must then begin testing the eggs themselves.

From what I’ve heard the risk of Salmonella on the outside of the egg a fair bit higher than it being on the inside of the egg.

Just had a Don Lee chicken and cauliflower rice bowl. Pretty good until a 1cm length of wire embededded itself into my gums. Looked like wire that would come from a wire wheel. Painful, I'm glad I didn't swallow it.

Just give your eggs the float test if you're worried about bad eggs: if it floats in water, toss it. It's a nice test with a definite pass/fail. You can get months out of a Costco 5 dozen unless you're an avid egg eater.

Even then, they're probably still ok to eat as long as they don't smell of satans rear end in a top hat when you open it or look off.

The last couple of times I've been they've had signs out front that there are no eggs. I guess that giant chicken factory they just built in Kansas or Nebraska or something like that is just for cooked chickens.

That night we performed the rite and opened the gate.
Halfway through, I went to fix us both a coke float.
By the time I got back, he'd gone insane.
Plus, he'd left the gate open and there was evil everywhere.


Not eggsellent. I think I got 12 from Safeway for like $7 yesterday.

Broiler chickens are slaughtered much younger than laying hens and therefore have less chance to get bird flu. Which is why the rotisserie chickens can still be $5

Great news everyone I get to return a foam mattress that my wife doesn't find comfortable. It's only three years old what is the best way to return this?

The difference in size from when it was in a box to being decompressed is intimidating.

OK to recap the mattress was a week old and had not been slept on yet. I returned it with only minor inconvenience of having to push it in through he exit against the flow of exiting shoppers. I wrapped it in a mattress bag as well.

I even helped corporation sell more, a couple was looking at them and I let them know a fully unboxed version was in the returns aisle if they wanted to feel it. They bought two. I bought a regular spring mattress and everyone is happy about it. Costco Crab is even taking the old mattress for his own place so we don't have to dispose of it.

Haven’t messed one up yet though and they are delicious at $14.99/lb

I'd probably just sear the poo poo out of it in a cast iron or carbon steel pan trying to keep the interior as rare as possible. Like 45 seconds on each side.

If one of these fell into my lap I'd try to recreate a a sushi I had with it last year.

It was described as a 72-hour sous vide, then seared and placed on top of sushi rice. It was very decadent.

No, they got it right the first time, but cut it into strips, cook one strip at a time, and eat that strip immediately.

Maybe 60s on each side instead of 45s

Ziplock that sucker. Toss it in a beer cooler with 130° water for an hour or so. Pull it out. Pat it dry. Season with salt and pepper then give it the quickest sear you possibly can.

Idk, I'm starting to appreciate a reverse sear in an oven vs sous vide. It's just so wet when it comes out of the bag, hard to get a good sear without smoking my house out
