OP i like to just slice tofu and sprinkle it with this stuff called kala namak or black salt (except it’s often pink, which is confusing). you can also pan fry the tofu if you want first but i’m too lazy 😁 most of the time.
With regards to the happy hens myth, modern egg laying chickens have been bred to lay ~ 300 eggs a year (!!!) versus in nature 20 a 30 a year, also an egg is a hen’s ovulation obviously and not her period as a couple people referenced.
They suffer terribly because of this, as a comparison think of if you had a period every few days instead of every month. Also they lose so many nutrients with each egg that they need for themselves. Some rescued hens are put on birth control to stop them from laying more eggs.
Eggs are also terrible for human health, which is only logical - why would they be good for our health it’s an insane idea to eat a hen’s ovulation.
Oh also so called ‘free range’ eggs just means that all the hens are thrown into a horrible shed together with maybe a window that none of them ever get to see out of. they also will ‘debeak’ them to stop them pecking at each othe.
None of those humanewashing terms have any regulations attached to them, so they mean nothing. It doesn’t matter what label is on the box, egg laying hens are some of the most abused and mistreated animals on earth and live horrible lives.
Oh and to the person who said the hens will lay the eggs anyway, completely untrue, people vote with their wallets and if nobody bought eggs the cruelty would stop. Ditto any other animal products.
Thank you OP for caring and wanting to help the hens 🙂
