Where have all the white eggs gone?


Recommended Posts

I was given the task today of getting some white (chicken) eggs to be boiled, coloured and painted for Easter.

 

Little had I realised that the supemarket chains have decided that people want only brown eggs and that is all they stock on their shelves.

It is surprising that this gradual change had passed me by.

 

I assume that, these days, it is just a question of another additive in the chicken feed.

 

Off to the free-range shops tomorrow, then!

 

When was the last time you remember seeing a white egg?
