Did you know? Eggs…
Did you know that all store bought eggs are coloured ie so that the yolks are the yellow colour we expect. Organic free range chickens are given a small amount of cinnamon and turmeric to colour their yolks.
Non-organic chickens are given a diet high in red and yellow carotenoids to ensure their yolks are the correct yellow.
Anyone with chickens at home will realize the yolk varies depending on what the chicken is eating and the actual colour of the yolk makes no nutritional difference at all!
Then there is the egg shells and trying to make them more white!
Why are we so concerned about what colour we “think” our food should be.
