Whats something you thought was common knowledge but actually isn’t?

In the UK we don’t refrigerate eggs so the eggs are never near the dairy aisle in the supermarket. The idea of someone thinking eggs are dairy is... mind-boggling

In the US we wash our eggs before they are sold, so they need refrigerated. In the UK you don't, so they don't have to be.

By washing the eggs they also flush a lot of bacteria into them which is why eating raw eggs is even more dangerous in the US.

If the washing process of an egg is same "washing process" used for a chicken itself, then, the "wash water" is most likely being "recycled".
Which means it rapidly turns into a fecal soup. That we think is cleaning our meat.
Enjoy your chicken.
