    FYI the “organic” brown eggs were cheaper at my store yesterday than the regular ones. I never would have noticed if my wife hadn’t pointed it out.

      Umm, if one is afraid of bird flu, wouldn’t “organic” eggs be worse to buy?

        While there is a lot of fuckery with “organic”, on the whole it should be better off. The chickens laying organic eggs generally have a better environment, more space and better food. This helps boost their immune systems, and slow the general spread.

        There are very few treatments to stop bird flu. Healthier birds is about the only viable defence, once it’s in.
