EEC goes to work on an egg

[nursejudy]

In todays Telegraph.Brussels latest is that Eggs have to have the following information stamped on them.

1. The farmers home address.

 

2. Details of which hen laid the egg.

 

3.The method of production.

 

4.The farmers production code.

 

5. A sell by date.

 

this will become law next year.!

 

How can we paint eggs for Easter that are covered in graffiti.

 

Will the hens have to lay larger eggs to accomodate the extra writing,the little lion is no longer enough. :confused: :confused:

 

Whatever next.

I do hope the person with the stamp has a gentle touch.

 

Not much of a job though is it..hanging around a hens butt all day waiting with a stamp and ink pad.

Method of production? I thought is was obvious what the method of production was, hens laying eggs. :confused:

Bet there will be a cock up somewhere.

Hmmm. don't you ever wonder why the UK media are so keen to lie about the EU and want Britain out of it?

 

Maybe because in the EU workers have more rights, more time off..

 

For those of you who believe all you hear about the EU spend five minutes having a look at this link

At least once you have done so, you will have heard both sides of the story.

They will be genetically modifying the eggs first to make them bigger! Im supprised they dont what to know the chickens name to!
