        Not commonly. Go to any shop in Britain - very unusual to find eggs in the refrigerator aisle. They don't need to be.

        because you guys wash them with chemicals, thus destroying the protective layer that stops salmonella etc entering the membrane.

        .@nytimes so, with America washing the eggs they are actually promoting Salmonella by washing off the protective layer preventing bacteria!

        never met anyone who didn't refrigerate eggs. It's standard to refrigerate them in Europe.

        I think it has a little bit of something to do with food poisoning...but what the hell do I know?
