I had heard that; the peer-reviewers for the article on my message board told me as much. I could have been more specific about how might be a better use of the chickens.
Ahh. Gotcha. I suppose noting the whole WEEK thing would have helped.
Eh, it happens. I make worse mistakes on a daily basis.
I always buy the most organic and cage free eggs I can get, and so this does happen to me occasionally. I particularily remember one especially bloody and yucky incident that scared the bejezus out of my girlfriend at the time. The waffles still turned out great*. Doesn’t much bother me, though, at least it proves that I get what I’m paying for.
*OK, OK, I admit it, I did remove the avian abortion aftermath from the waffle mix. I suppose it *would * be edible… but I don’t usually eat chicken.
So that’s how that chicken and waffle place got started. I always wondered about that.
Just FTR, you’re quoting someone else; I don’t know how my name got in there…
I remember having a discussion with a woman once about whether the eggs we eat are fertilised. Unfortunately I was a wet-behind-the-ears 20, and she was in her 30s so I was immediately at a disadvantage, “Ah, silly little boy, what would you know about eggs?”
I just hope that one day she’ll tell someone about the silly boy who thought that hens laid eggs without the help of a rooster, and that someone will say, “aha, I’m sorry to break it to you, but he was right!” Unfortunately I suspect that most people would just sigh and say, “ah, silly little boy, what would he know about eggs?”
Re the chickens
–a normal poultry hen produces eggs whether or not here is a rooster
–the rooster is reuired to make the eggs fertile for propagation purposes
… jhow
Well, the regular eggs we eat are basically chicken menstruation, after all. Now, why would women need men around in order to menstruate? What a silly idea.
(Sorry if that image put anyone off their omelettes.)
Well, you don’t think we waste all that PMS on each other, do you?
