To think that anyone who buys battery eggs rather than free range is cruel?

[Lovesdogsandcats]

Follow on from the free range meat thread..
Is there anyone on here who buys eggs that are not free range?

I buy whatever is cheapest, if you will excuse the pun! Cheapest? Get it?

No differentid that does not make sense.There are planty foods cheaper than battery eggs and intensively reared chicken.

Not exactly free, bb

oh dear I buy barn eggs
so shoot me

You know you are

Or you are deluded

or stirring

So...... us peasants who can't afford free range every time should live on what?

well, you know. Free-ish. After they pay for themselves, IYSWIM.

I am neither deluded or stirring.
just know I am right.

There's a smug thread just above this one for you

ok- go on then, find something that is cheaper and more ethical than intensively reared chicken and cage eggs. that will feed say a family of 4/5 and provide the same level of protein etc.

Well, I haven't eaten an egg in a LONG time and I'm still here!
There is nothing in an egg that'll kill you if you don't eat one...soooo, if you can't afford free range every time, eat something else!

How about a mung bean cottage pie, with veg on the side?

something chick pea based? Cheap and very good source of protein.

Or beans on toast?

beans on toast is a perfect protein.

i think we should all just eat dogs and cats, there are loads of them about.

omelette and salad for 4 people, using cheap value produce. Find me a meal that's as light to eat that will provide the same nutritional values for less than the cost of that.

I only buy free range, would never buy battery, too cruel.

Sounds luvverly!

2 shoes, why not move to somewhere like korea or thailand then?

home made falafel and salad in pitta? Damn, this is making me hungry...

Mung bean pie?
WTF?!!!

Lockets, I eat egg free
