Show Notes

In this episode, we crack into the environmental, health, and social impacts of egg consumption and production. From the stench of industrial egg factories to the evolving science on cholesterol, we explore the complicated role eggs play in our diets. Eggs can be a powerhouse of nutrition—but it depends on how and where they're produced. We talk free-range, tree-range, pasture-raised, and even the benefits (and challenges) of backyard chickens. And yes, salmonella still lurks in the shadows.
