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?🤪)
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?
does this mean 6 individual eggs, or six larger packs of eggs?
because that could be one of the differences here, it’s not uncommon for me to get two 18-packs at once, and someone buying at Costco might be getting a huge pallet of eggs.
Six eggs. That or 10 are the normal packages here. I don’t run a bakery nor do I have a family of 50 to feed, so I don’t need a pallet of eggs… Also I walk to the supermarket, which is 5 min away, so if I’m out of eggs I just get new ones.
Doesn’t matter though, if you can’t work through your batch of eggs over three weeks you’re doing something wrong and should just buy less eggs.
No, it isn’t? Look, if you only get to the store every other month it’s probably safe to say you’re living so far away from everything that it’s just far easier to have fucking chicken instead of buying shitloads of eggs at fucking costco… It’s not like they’re complicated animals.
I mean I keep my onions in the fridge in summer, but that’s cause if I don’t they’ll start growing within a couple weeks. Sometimes it’s out of necessity.
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.

Are you a butter fridged person or not?
No, not unless it’s really hot, but I also got one of those french water cooled butter dishes, so that helps a lot.

Thanks for the clarification on your six eggs, but your ending statement there is just an opinion.

Yep, just an opinion. Not everyone wants to take care of chickens.

Space. My fridge is crowded as is without unnecessarily keeping eggs there. But if you have the room then ye
