Every time time comes up, it makes my brain hurt, because WTF do you mean that Americans wash their eggs? The shell doesn't go anywhere near the food. What do they need to wash their eggs for?

!justdontgetit@lemmy.tf is a community for things that you just don't get or understand. It's a community where you're welcome to be the opposite of the smartest in the room. Ask questions about things of which have perplex for years like "why was seeing a pig run a consolation?" or "why don't we shoo our space in to the sun?" and for those of you not comfortable with asking questions, even those like "why is going to bed with your socks on even though you have a spouse a thing?", you're welcome to be part of this community too and answer questions. The only thing I ask is that you be and not a condescending prick.
I originally said "You're free to post text posts, screenshots or memes." but it seems to be mostly text. Feel free to change that with your posts.

They have a different approach to combatting salmonella. In the US they sanitise the eggs which strips a natural protective layer so they require refrigeration. In my home country we use other methods to prevent salmonella, which leaves the egg's natural protection in place.
