    First time in a long while I did not do a single trade today. Markets seem blah and I didn't get to bed last night till much later than my usual.

    Or maybe it could be because I had too much mayo on the brain. :wtf:

    Family down the road sells fresh eggs.
    I won't eat the damn things.
    When I was a kid I cracked open an egg, store bought, but it must have been before they do whatever it is they do now, because there was this partially developed chicken embryo in there. :vomit: :vomit: :vomit:

    To this day that image remains and it still makes me want to puke.

    I don't care how healthy they're supposed to be... I want bleach white eggs from some operation Krogers owns. I'll pay the $4/dozen or whatever it is.

    Taste may be the same... but I worry about the processing and packaging standards.
    I'll take a Fortune 500 company that stands to lose billions in marketcap overnight with one mistake any day over some bs canned in India or Vietnam and shipped across the ocean in a cargo container.

    And that's not just tuna, that applies to a lot of off brand stuff that these supposed discount grocers sell.

  9. These days the Brits and the Spaniards would go to a pub to plan on how to beat the crap out of the French.
