【Are you sure that’s what you want?】Health, Food Safety, and Environmental Issues as Deciphered from Eggs

At the very least, choose cage-free eggs.

Many people may not be able to afford organic eggs that are concerned with feed due to their high price, but it is easy to buy ordinary cage-free eggs because there is a wide variety available these days.

In the past, only cage eggs were available, but the Japanese egg market is definitely changing.

　

↓I will try to summarize some of them below.

se refer to it as an example, as the products sold in each country will be completely different.
My hope is that no matter what country you live in, you will be able to eat eggs that are environmentally and physically friendly and delicious.

　

↑ Currently, the package is red in color.

The description was also changed.

（I happened to be at the LIFE supermarket and was surprised to see eggs added to the Life Natural product line.

The eggs were cage-free and the main ingredient in the feed was non-GMO. They seemed to be simple eggs with no special nutritional supplementation, so I decided to give them a try.

It is not as good as organic eggs, but if it taste good, it will become a regular product.）

Recently, it has become easier to purchase organic eggs on the Internet.

The following is an example.

(I will keep updating this page as I find better ones.)

　

　

　

The market and environment will certainly change depending on which eggs you choose.

　

What kind of eggs do you usually buy?

　

Cage-free eggs, which were not available before, are steadily increasing in number of products to meet the needs of consumers.

I believe that the day will come when eggs, which are expensive and difficult to buy now, will become easier to buy thanks to advances in feed production technology and poultry management systems.

　

I know there are pros and cons to the current situation and problems we have now.

I hope that this will give you something to think about, or I would be happy if I can convey something to you.
