It's mostly Americans and Canadians here and many of them don't know the rest of the world doesn't refrigerate eggs.

Americans wash the eggs in a way that removes a protective layer, meaning they go bad faster. Their eggs habe to be kept cool, as they are shit.

the same reason the supermarket keeps eggs in the fridge... so they don't spoil as quickly.

That’s only really a thing in American due to the washing process they use that strips the natural protective coating.

In Europe we vaccinate the hens instead.

I am in Europe, but still put eggs into the fridge because they have a nice balcony there to judge other food
