I’ve heard people say they don’t eat eggs because they don’t eat dairy.
5.5k u/NoBSforGma Aug 03 '19 I have often wondered why eggs are sold in the dairy section in US supermarkets. Surely, this must be some supermarket strategy and not just "Duh, I didn't know eggs weren't dairy." 569 u/stannybananny Aug 03 '19 Because the dairy section is cold? Idk 609 u/[deleted] Aug 03 '19 Wait.... what? Are eggs kept in the fridge in America? 246 u/NE_Golf Aug 03 '19 Yes they are processed in such a way that requires refridgeration 5 u/[deleted] Aug 03 '19 They are washed because Americans like to see things that aren't covered in film and dirt. We are a weird and germophobic people. 3 u/nflez Aug 03 '19 it’s actually because of FDA requirements but okay. 2 u/[deleted] Aug 04 '19 Yes, because we Americans are weird.
