Wegman's center cited for dirty eggs

More than 400 dozen eggs to be distributed from a Wegmans center near Minersville weren't all they were cracked up to be, authorities say.

Although Wegmans may have to shell out some money for a fine, it'll be chicken feed. The company could be fined from $25 to $300, said state Department of Agriculture spokesman Chris Ryder.

The eggs were labeled as Grade A, but a Department of Agriculture inspector found they had too much fecal matter on them to meet the requirements for that level, Ryder said. Read more

Please, next time read the WHOLE article - it clearly states the following,
"Dirty eggs can pose safety risks, he said. When eggs are cracked open, the contents can be exposed to contamination."

And after cracking these fecal eggs open, you would probably pick up a piece of bread to toast, then touch your plate and silver wear w/o washing your hands, then have the crap on your bread. I know I don't wash my hands between cracking the egg and making my toast. Yuck!

Uh TripleK, they are organic eggs...
Wegmans spokeswoman Jo Natale said that ''450 dozen Sauder Brown Organic eggs were found to not meet grade A standards. They were returned to the supplier, Sauder's Organic Eggs''

Reading comprehension isn't your strong point, is it? Both of your "issues" were addressed in the article.

And I thought my job sucked! Some miserable a**hole gets to check eggs all day to see if they have too much sh*t on 'em!

This poor bastard has a sh*tty day at work and can't even discuss it over dinner with his family.

"Good Morning, Illegal Alien. Your mission, should you decide to accept it, is to clean eggs as they fall from a chicken's butt. It's a crummy job, and no American wants to do it. As always, should you or any of your IM Force be caught or killed, the secretary will disavow any knowledge of your actions. This tape will self-destruct in five seconds. Good luck, Paco.” pffffft
