Stuff I found interesting or amusing and thought I'd share.
- Peter Attia on exercise intensity.
- Egg prices over the past decade. Egg prices over the last 10 months. No wonder you don't hear the legacy media talking about egg prices anymore. MAHA!
- How to improve your content diet in the new year. You are what you read. Couple of years old but new to me.
Stuff I found interesting or amusing and thought I'd share.
- Hatching a Conspiracy Theory: A BIG investigation into eggs prices. Long but interesting read. Egg cartels are real.
- Peter Attia: A casual link between obesity and autoimmune disease. Bottom line - another scientific study showing the benefit of exercise and keeping your weight in check.
- The Death of Europe. "America's poorest state (Mississippi) is now richer than most European countries."
Used to be you'd buy a carton of eggs. Some kind of cardboard container everyone who shops was familiar with. And if you're like me when buying eggs you'd open up the carton container and check to see if there were any broken eggs. If there were - back on the shelf that carton went.
Today there seems to be fewer eggs at the super market and those that are there now usually come in this double sealed plastic container. You can visually inspect the eggs but opening up the container to check becomes much more of a production then it used to be.
Did the increase in prices cause the change to a more protective but more expensive packaging? If there's less "breakage" then this would make sense. But where's the outrage from the folks who wanted to outlaw plastic straws on all this new plastic being introduced to the average home? And whatever happened to those cartons of eggs that had a broken egg that I - and others - would just place back on the shelf? Did they just sit there until someone who didn't check bought them? Did the supermarket take the unbroken eggs and repackage them in different cartons? Or was the whole thing chucked out in the trash?
These are the types of things I think about in the shower.
