not entirely true. Fertile eggs can be purchased and eaten as well

Well how many people do you think eat them? Are you talking about balut? I'm taking a wild guess here, but I bet the majority of people are eating unfertilized eggs. :lol:

Fertile eggs will not contain a developed embryo, as refrigeration prohibits cellular growth for an extended amount of time.

However you get my point:lmao:

The eggs sold in regular grocery stores are definitely unfertile. Some specialty stores may sell fertile eggs.

Anyhoo, my point was, the average Joe does not eat fertilized eggs. :lol: But I can tell you some stories from when I was younger. My brother was supposed to collect the eggs....and sometimes he'd miss a few days. It's not pretty to crack open an egg with a developing chick inside. :yikes:

After you....:love:

Have you read anything about how modern commercial meat is raised? Better you go out and hunt your own than eat that garbage. :barf:

FYI- the most vocal organization speaking out against these big corporate factory farms is not PETA, its Farm Aid.

And us tree huggers are big time advocates of buying from small, local farmers. Fresher food and it hasn't resulted in 3,000 miles worth of diesel being spewed into the atmosphere.

We used to get farm eggs or else they were produced differently, because every once in a while we'd get a little gooey bloody lump in the egg yolk. Was that a baby chickey?

I can only speak for beef. I used to live near a feed lot. They'd bring the cattle in from the range and fatten them up for a week or two. Then off to the slaughter house. How else would you do it?

This is my friends' farm. The meat is :yum:! It's all grass-fed. No grain at all for the sheep and beef. It's the most tender, flavorful meat you will ever have.

What causes blood spots?
Small spots of blood (sometimes called "meat" spots) are occasionally found in an egg yolk. These do not indicate a fertile egg; they are caused by the rupture of a blood vessel on the yolk surface during formation of the egg. Most eggs with blood spots are removed during the grading process but a few may escape detection. As an egg ages, water moves from the albumen into the yolk, diluting the blood spot. Thus, a visible blood spot actually indicates a fresh egg. Such eggs are suitable for consumption. The spot can be removed with the tip of a knife, if you wish.
