Refrigerating eggs also roughly doubles their shelf life.

Yeah that’s fair enough, although they already last for ages. “Can’t wait to eat these eggs in a month”.

Still one too many pieces of packaging for my liking. Put the OG egg holder in the fridge. The chicken.

Yeah you’re right, I should really be more invested in global egg storage.

I think this is bordering on becoming an absurd discussion on the validity of demographics, which I’m not really interested in.

Besides which, the last time a whole US population was polled about something, they decided to to make the worst possible decision, so my interest in US opinion is even less today.

Apart from pretty much every single supermarket

It answers the question as to why I limited it to the UK. Advice for eggs from non-vaccinated hens is to refrigerate them. So in a country that doesn’t vaccinate, the proportion of refrigerated eggs will be much higher than a country where it isn’t necessarily advised, and the decision comes down to personal choice. That’s what I’m interested in.

Because in countries that don’t vaccinate their chickens (like the US) the risk of salmonella is much higher so the recommendation is that eggs should be refrigerated to reduce bacteria growth.

All the successes listed for that year were sequels/prequels, so there’s an element of playing it safe. This year’s were all originals, which is ambitious, and to be honest, laudable. Just a shame they were shit.

The vibe’s very different without Sid James and Barbara Windsor.

This is really well written. I absolutely love the line:

Their flock grew ever more numerous, collecting like claw marks on a cell door.

Not worth giving them the traffic.

It’s the fucking Daily Mail, and should be completely avoided anyway.

As a Brit, I have to agree. So many of the skits that have been shared over the years are terrible, and I have to wonder if it’s a cultural divide.

On the other hand, the weekend update where the guys swap jokes is some of the best comedy I’ve seen.

Yeah I get that, and that’ll be because of the long term financial benefits of enticing the companies there. But still…€13bn is a mad figure.

It sounds so bizarre that Ireland has been fighting in court to avoid having to receive €13bn from Apple.

My comment was satirical

This job sounds like it could be replaced by AI

I’d never heard of The Arrival. I’ve just read that Sheen’s character is called Zane Zaminsky which immediately gives me an idea of the quality of the movie, and guarantees I’ll watch it.

Pulse was an odd one. The only thing I remember about it is the shower scene, for reasons other than I would typically remember a shower scene.

Another one for the list: Cube (1997). Low budget sci-fi horror-ish movie that I remember being pretty polarising.
