Eggs By The Kg?

[Thighlander]

Are they doing this in CNX? I was wondering how that was working out.

[gotlost]

Not that I know of. Still buy them pre package in the stores or by the flat or by total but not by weight.

my apologies. I did read about it in the BP, which I quit buying when it went to 25, let alone 30.

[mic6ard]

thought that the idea got canned.

The lady near me sells them fresh every morning 30 Baht per 10.....don't start confusing her.

[Thighlander]

and that's a lot better buy than the BP.

Too true

Prices would probably go up if by weight as they have to compensate for the cost of buying scales.

Absolutely! - don't want too much of this hi tech stuff, it spoils the charm......she's happy as she is.

You now buy eggs without scales?

Never seen eggs weighed before, everyplace I know goes by count and size.

//edit - ok, just saw you were doing some word play there. Guess fish eggs may have scales.

Who said that Mark did not modernise Thailand?

Soon they will be ready to join the EU.

Of course, thai eggs will have to be standardised first, can't have more / less eggs to the kilo.

But could apply for an exemption, and sell them by the pound.

Only temporarily of course.

Unless Lithuania uses it's veto.

"The reason eggs have become more nutritious over the past decade is that hens are no longer fed bone meal, which was banned in the Nineties following the BSE crisis, the researchers claim. Instead the birds are normally given a mixture of wheat, corn and high-protein formulated feed, which makes their eggs more wholesome".

Hmm I wonder if my 10 for 30 Baht lady is adhering to this?

If you worry about that, you should become a vegetarian, and buy an eggplant.

The eggs by weight is only being tried out in Bangkok. The scheme will run for three months and the government will then re-assess the situation.

And of course the chickens won't have a say in all this.

Bloody typical for this country.

Well, at least we now know what this government means when it refers to 'a situation' is developing.

Who is the Minister for Eggs anyway?

[Thighlander]

Maybe the "chicken coup" was just the Yellow Shirts.
