Things that creep me out about Australia

1. Australian Grocery stores don't refrigerate their eggs.

It's like-- wow, that is a bunch of shelves next to the flour that are full of eggs! Clearly, this must be a credible practice because there they are, but --- all American ex-pats in a 200km radius have just contracted psychosomatic salmonella, is all I'm saying.

Uh, no, I have not been in Australia for -- 1, 2? -- 4 months now. But I bought eggs, just now! Chilled eggs.

i'm pretty sure unrefridgerated eggs are OK! salmonella is in a lot of eggs, and refridgeration doesn't do anything about it -- just cooking them fully.
