A lot of American food is banned in the UK due to how toxic the food is and the terrible food safety laws in your country.
I refuse to buy eggs that are not free range. My American in-laws came over & the first time they had British eggs they were astonished at how much tastier they were.
Think about this:- When you get stressed or depressed your body & general health suffers. When you cram loads of hens into a cage with barely enough room to move they get stressed & depressed, so what do you think happens to the eggs & the meat? Apart from that, it's cruel & inhumane to treat any animal like that.
The US has a nasty habit of fucking about with their food. I've lived in both countries & I'm sorry, but our food is much better & doesn't taste like it's been through the digestive system of an android.
I suspect a lot of those so called free range eggs sold in the U.K. , are battery farmed hens eggs . They have had cow sh💩t & bits of straw stuck on them to make them look like genuine free range eggs & flogged for over twice the price .
@@maskedavenger2578I’m pretty sure the farms are all visited by inspectors annually (not saying it’s impossible)
@@fatguyfrommars The inspectors can’t be everywhere , & a lot of eggs get mixed up at the supermarket . When there is breakages the make up full boxes of free range eggs with the cheapo battery farmed eggs . It’s also been known for people to swop the cheapo eggs for posh eggs & put them into the cheapo egg cartons , to save a few quid .
The clip at 8:35 with the hens in the cages, in the U.K. we called that Battery Farmed Eggs.
Battery Farmed Eggs were banned in the U.K. and most of Europe in 2012.
It's illegal to keep hens in cages in the UK now. It's too cruel.
56 Yr old brit here, Never put our eggs in the fridge. No need, WHY? Because they are clean and naturally protected. I have been a roller pigeon breeder all my life, and pigeons, just like any other bird can lay thier first egg a week before the last before they start to incubate them,,, Protective coating.
i freeze my eggs so they last a year
It's all about profit and cost in America, rather than ethical farming
76 year old here. Free range eggs taste better than barn eggs here in England. It is all down to what the birds eat.
US profit first, then bandage the issue. UK/EU, treat the animals well to ensure less chance of contamination and ensure this is all through the process.
I like this guy.He actually listens and is willing to learn.
Same. Best guy I’ve come across with these UK-US reactions.
Most countries outside the US also vaccinate their chickens, whereas the the US rarely do.
I wonder what countries like Japan where they regularly eat raw eggs do?
No one mentioned the Lion Mark! In the UK, almost all eggs sold in supermarkets come with a Lion Mark stamped on them. It’s not just a thing that says they’re from the UK, it actually means that the chickens have been vaccinated against salmonella. There’s absolutely no such thing as “grade a” in the UK. There’s the Lion Mark, then they’re also date stamped and numbered as to where they were laid. You can trace your egg to a certain farm. That code will also tell you if the eggs come from a farm that’s free range or organic. A typical code will be something like 0UK50124. The 0 means organic, 1 would be free range, 2 means Barn. UK is the country of origin and the rest is a code specific to the farm. There’s also a “best before” stamped on them. It’s a “best before” it’s not a “use by”. That’s because, again, the hens have been vaccinated against salmonella, they’re kept in better conditions and that all means they are safer. I will argue for better conditions for animals and part of that is recognition of better practices and encouraging them. Don’t just shout “I don’t eat eggs so I’m helping chickens” you’re really not helping, at all. Always buy organic because the welfare standards are better. They will be marked with a 0. If you live in the countryside, get to know your local farmer, your eggs will likely be from the hens you see running round the yard, and occasionally your garden but there’s always a downside.
Farmers who raise chickens in cages are disgusting
There as still some companies that do caged birds in the UK, admittedly colony cages rather than individual cages as used in the US, they’re not normally available to the public but are used be the food industry.
Many years ago my uncle and aunt ran a mixed farm and got some chickens which they caged. After a few weeks they released the hens as neither my uncle nor aunt could stand seeing the poor hens in that state. After that they let them roam free around the farmyard during the day and shut them in a henhouse at night. Sadly, foxes attacked killed most of the hens during one night... Hens have a tough life.
No such thing as American bread. It is cake.
I'd always thought it was just my mothers eccentricity to drive out to the farmsteads for her eggs, no matter what country we happened to be in. And then we were shown, in school, the horrors of chicken farming - and other animal farming/factories. (As others educated by nuns will know, they never pussy-footed around in introducing human-kind's iniquities.) So we grew up and got into the work force knowing how barbaric that was/is and changing things.
But in a capitalist society the least outlay the more profitable. And injecting them costs money. So does farming them properly.There's no point in vaccinating these poor misshapen creatures packed in to small cages, standing on top of each other, shitting all over each other. 😨 The vaccine can only be administered to birds which have enough space & cleanliness not to continually be re-infecting each other.
Of course the rather watered-down version of modern nuns would never never run the risk of traumatising kids by the classfull today. But it was only after I started to write this that I realised how vividly those images have stuck in my head. And after I'd seen them I suddenly realised that my mother wasn't completely eccentric, after all.😌
We have animal welfare in the UK. Free-range eggs are in all shops. Having chickens in battery farms pecking the feathers from each other having their feet grow attached to the metal bars because they can't move. You prefer cruelty, big difference in our moral standards.
I would not go to the US for fear of being poisoned or shot.
Me too
I left some eggs on a shelf over my radiator for a week. Yeah, the temperature plummeted. My only concern was that they may hatch. They were fine. But I do cluck occasionally.
Such a clucking great comment. 🐔🐣🐥🥇🏆❤
Such a clucking great comment. 🐔🐣🐥🏆🏴💜🇬🇧
The difference is good animal husbandry practices.
I wonder if that is why Americans overcook their eggs. I have seen many videos of Americans cooking scrambled eggs and seriously overcooking them.
I can fully understand why there is such a high number of Salmonella illnesses/deaths in the USA after watching the Gordon Ramsey (UK Chef) series filmed in America called "Ramsey's Kitchen Nightmares"! Don't they have regular hygiene tests in cafes and restuarants there?
Even our McDonald’s use free range eggs.
Many people won’t eat in establishments that don’t use free range eggs these days.
Factory farming hens is awful and heartbreaking for everyone to see.
no one cares ,so your comment is assumptions
My dad sold eggs for over 20 years we got them from a local farm of free range chickens, I loved seeing them out pecking and enjoying the farm. 💕🐓🐣🥚we never kept our eggs in the fridge. Never got ill from them.
I do put them in the fridge but it's not needed - only to keep them out the way so they don't get broken . It's mainly an animal welfare issue as it means chickens have to be kept in decent conditions .
The UK vaccinated chickens against salmonella. We also have much higher hygiene standards for farms. Salmonella has not been a problem here for decades. We've also obliterated tetanus.
Many years ago when my dad got our first fridge in the late 50’s it had an egg rack in the door so he started to put eggs in it only to have them freeze crack the shell leaving a gooey mess so he went back to leaving them in the larder instead
"British Lion Eggs" They all have a red lion stamped/printed on them to indicate that the hens have been vaccinated followed by: A best before Date, the type of farming system/method used, e.g. organic, free range or barn and a specific code to which farm the egg(s) came from. So if there was a outbreak of salmonella the infected produce can be traced back to the source and nipped in the bud.
Just thought I should Eggsplain that to you, and it's true, I'm not Yolking.

The eggs in Spain are not kept in the fridge, their eggs are delicious 😋. Spain is famous for it's omelettes! Free range food tastes so much better without the chemical process used in the USA. Europe decided to go organic for the health benefits of the people. Hospital is free it makes better sense not to have a large amount of folk using the system. Keep them healthy so they don't need a doctor!
I live in Northern Ireland. When I get a box of eggs, still wee chicky bum feathers on them. Heee!
British fridges come with a egg holder so I always keep them in the fridge it has plenty of space and they last ages.
Not all British fridges have egg holders. I used to have a fridge with an egg holders but now I don't. I keep my eggs in a lovely big pottery hen on the worktop.
Not all do! 😂 Jesus, you people think we all live with that hefty American fridge with all that space. 🙄🤦♀️
No my fridge does not come with a frigging egg holder like you claim we have. 🙄🙄
Birds, except Swans, ducks and some other birds, have a Cloaca. It is a single hole that everything comes out of. As a train driver and pidgeons being indigenous residents of stations, their mating habits are quite interesting.
US v UK Salmonella rates
This information was found on the internet but it also says that comparing the numbers is not accurate as the methods and accuracy of data gathering in each country varies.
So with that in mind
US cases of Salmonella per year is 15.2 illnesses per 100,000 people
England (I could not find numbers for the whole of the UK) cases per year are around 13.5 per 100,000 people
But I also found the following
The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention report around *380 deaths* in the US each year attributed to foodborne salmonella poisoning. The most recent epidemiological lab data from Public Health England, 2006 to 2015 shows *no deaths* in England and Wales from salmonella.
I tend to keep my eggs in the fridge simply because there's a rack that holds up to 16 eggs or the occasional lemon for drinks and my kitchen is rather small. Keeps them out of reach of my cat too.
Salmonella deaths per year in the UK is 0.
Issue with this though is the far superior, on average, healthcare in the UK. Salmonella isn't a lethal food poisoning unless the person is immunocompromised and untreated. Everyone in the UK has fully covered healthcare so is treated. Many in the U.S. will avoid treatment, often until it's made worse or is too late.
I’m in the UK. I use quite a lot of eggs, generally 2 or 3 a day for just me. I always have a dozen (12) eggs on my counter in a ceramic egg tray. Any eggs additional to that are in the refrigerator, but I take out eggs from the fridge to replenish those I use, so eggs I use will have been on the counter for at least 4 or 5 days on average before I use them. Supermarkets here sell eggs from unrefrigerated shelves. I lived/worked for several years in France and I also had a second home in Spain for many years, both mostly much warmer countries than the UK, and eggs were sold & stored at home unrefrigerated there too - never had any issues. Almost all the eggs I buy are ‘free range’, either from a supermarket, but I also buy eggs from farm shops nearby on occasion, and these come from a couple of nearby farms, similarly those farm shops also sell very local meats and vegetables, and in the warmer weather there are very local fruits too, but those generally cost more, so most people, me included, buy most foods from supermarkets, which source their produce from further afield, either in the UK or elsewhere in Europe, and particularly for out of season items these may come from literally all over the world, whether Australia, New Zealand, Egypt, North Africa or North or South America, etc.
I’d say the medical records from patients dealing with salmonella compare to medical records here in the UK. 5.03 in…
It’s easy to explain why we have far less salmonella cases here in the UK compare to America. Much stricter food hygiene safety.
Isn’t just American eggs that are illegal here. Most American foods are banned here unless they use natural ingredients without all the American chemicals and flavourings added.
imo non sanitizied and washed eggs have a less 'egg like' taste and the yolk isnt as creamy. But this also makes american eggs work better paired with pancakes bacon and syrup in a diner imo. British eggs work better with sausages, bacon etc.
You can get salmonella when washing chicken, which spreads bacteria around the kitchen.
Your eggs are white, what we call battery hen eggs. The chicken don't see the light of day, poor things. Our eggs are free range and the chicken is free to roam so the egg is brown and laid more naturally. White egg yolks are yellow brown egg yolks are more on the orange side.
Egg shell colour is purely down to the breed of hen who laid it, nothing to do with the husbandry. The egg yolk colour is affected by the food the hen eats though.
A lot of white eggs come from a breed of White Hens that lays more eggs nothing to do with Battery In the UK we also used this white breed of Hens a lot once because they laid more eggs People only started buying more brown eggs because they though they were healthier when it was really to do with free range Organic against bad infections Battery Hens now People understand
In the UK (and the rest of Europe) tends to vaccinate the hens against salmonella, so there's less of that around in any case.
Salmonella was described by doctor Salmon.
No! His name was Doctor Simon Ella.
15 cent per chicken to vaccinate? Love America but your system is even more nuts than ours. Please get out and vote my lovely American friends,
I'm British and ALWAYS keep my eggs in the fridge !
Free range eggs are the norm in the UK.
The only thing you'll find on the outside of a British egg is hen poop or a feather .
no where in europe washes eggs
also our chickens are vaccinated at a cost of 13p per chicken
If the water is very hot how do the not start cooking? Yes well the cost of your own health is extortionate so I should imagine your veterinary healthcare would be equally as expensive…..but over here there are regulations re healthcare medications . You see The Europeans that stayed over here and didn’t try to escape the tyranny to go to a country where they were free( 🤔🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂🤭and if you have to kid yourself that you are that then you go ahead coz from our viewpoint you are kidding yourselves when even the police don’t know your constitutional amendments even though they swear to uphold them)……. The stayers Do try to look after their people and have all sorts of regulations to ensure they are kept safe which is why they don’t allow putting a load of dangerous food into the food chain! And don’t make everything a “ must make as much profit as you can”game to amass more money than the rest of the world could live on the rest of their lives!
Unfortunately like many of these things it does boil down to the difference between Uk & US animal welfare standards , and more fundamentally the average “person in the street” attitude and personal regard to welfare of animals. Not to mention climate change. I am a struggling vegetarian borderline vegan (relapsing into carnivore) at the moment, but knowing the way I should be heading. I understand that the UK like most of Europe does inoculate chicks against salmonella and I know from personal knowledge that in “the scheme of things “ it is of very little cost to the farmer. The eggs I buy from a high street store are generally very clean because it is in the producer’s interest to do so. Occasionally I have an egg with a feather attached to it which is a gentle reminder to me of where this product has come from, and not from McDonald’s or Kroger’s a*r*h*o*.

Idk if this is true but do the us wash their chicken in a chlorine solution to make sure you don’t get diseases instead of regulating and culling their chickens?
1:40 in and you already mentioned it haha
Brother your one of a kind if you haven’t watched it yet you should watch (THE RAP GAME UK) trust me I’ve just put u on
Hopefully
Not washing is best. Look after your chickens, then the eggs are fine. Edit: yes, we Brits are still Europeans...
Eggs are kept in a fridge in England 🏴 as my grandparents kept theirs in a fridge so does my sister, I do so do my parents and lots of people who’s houses I have visited.
They dont need to be, if they did then they would be stored in a fridge in the shop.
Well Technically The UK IS AN ISLAND NATION ! But our Closest Neighbour is France Then if you go up to Scotland Northern Ireland which is a Part of The UK too ?. As for the Irish Republic it’s not as Far From Northern Ireland Compared to Going Across The Irish Sea To Dublin From Bangor in Whales and I think it’s about 3 Hours by Ferry between Bangor and Dublin But The Sea-cat is about 2 hours plus or so From Belfast in NI to Scotland ?.
And if we’re going to Mainland Europe as in France from Dover it’s about an Hour or so and using the Euro Star Train it’s 45 Minutes from The Cargo Terminal and 2 Hours and 16 Minutes from London to Paris France ?. But I think going by Ferry is a Must and The Duty Free isn’t Bad Neither ! Ok only being Able to Buy 400 Cigarettes is SH But the Booze Makes up for that SH TOO ?.
I mean back in the Day you used to be able to Buy 2000 Cigarettes in total Both Ways ! But I think it’s only 200 today ?.
And France used to be A Gold Mine for Off Licences and Corner Shops for Cheap Booze But who is going to pass up 25% off Duty Free Booze ?.
Hearing you waffle on without knowing why the Uk Europe do it differently is fucking painful!! Our chickens are vaccinated against salmonella so we don’t need wash the eggs
Wash them just before you use them ??? seriously how dumb are you guys ?
Unsubscribed. Sorry dude. Your child like innocence turned into 100% lack of understanding and lack of knowledge.
Neal, do stop talking so that we can hear the video.
NO WE ARE NOT EUROPEAN ANYMORE TGFT WE WERE SMART ENOUGH TO LEAVE... DON'T EVER SAY WE ARE EUROPEAN AGAIN OR I WILL NOT WATCH YOUR CHANNEL AGAIN...
We ARE European we are encompassed in the continent known as Europe. Ergo European? Just because we came out of the EU does not mean we rescinded our title of European ! We are a country (amalgamation of four)of Europe just as Norway France Germany Spain Ukraine etc……. But you are right that we are no longer an EU member!
Yeah, go back to school, loose the caps lock. We are part of Europe, we are a member state to the European Court of Human Rights. We are still part of the European Customs Union. Likewise, we still have a driving licence which is valid in Europe. Furthermore, we still have European Health Insurance Cards. We still have freedom of movement in Europe. Expats can still receive pensions living in Europe. We still have trade agreements. The only thing we left is the European Union.

I keep eggs in the fridge because I have a small kitchen and it’s the safest place to put the. 🫤 not because I want to
