Something about samonilla being pushed through the breathable membrane if washed before storage (I've always givin them a good scrub before going in the fridge). I call BS...

Anyone heard of this?
 
I'm with you on BS I have had chickens for years and dirty clean they all go to the fridge together my take is you don't eat the shell so WTF. I do bake them instead of boil them so maybe that's what's keepen my system in check.
 
No, and we've been eating fresh eggs from our own chickens for 6-7 years now.
 
I call BS. I was raised on fresh, washed eggs. For that matter, we also grew up on raw milk which some experts say should have killed us.

No. Sounds like BS to me.

The problem with salmonella in chicken eggs is from the parent hen. If she has it, the egg gets it. Yeah, a shell may be dirty, but it is minor. All eggs get washed before they make it to market, well, except ones from small mom and pop produces.

Given the problems keeping it out of flocks, it is best to throughly cook your eggs. When you do that it is a non issue. Eating partially cooked or raw eggs is like putting a loaded gun to your head. Sooner or later it will get you.
