Das Ei

We walked to neighborhood grocery store to get a few items for the next day's breakfast and walked around and around the store looking for eggs. I overheard an English couple talking that looked like locals and asked them where in the world (or the store) the eggs might be. Turns out eggs are not refrigerated in Germany. We thought about this for a bit and it makes sense - hens don't have refrigerators in their butts do they?

We had the same issue in England. The eggs at the store are not refrigerated. Even after living there 12 months, I found myself standing by the dairy section wondering why I couldn't find the eggs...
