The Kosher Dilemma - Egg

[@carlosandalucia4660]

First, excellent video...For Egg dilemma and all of the other topics in the Dilemma series. I like the way you approach to investigating the differences and present them in a little entertaining form. I wish you could make more Dilemma videos. Now, I noticed that it is the same Rabbi who answered your Dilemma questions for the Blood traces in the meat and the blood pieces in the Eggs in this video. It is the same Rabbi who in this video says we are not allowed eat Blood, and who says I am ok with eating blood in the meat at the end of the Blood dilemma video. That is really interesting!

In america there are organic free range kosher eggs from a specific farmer that their white colored eggs rarely have blood spots. Every other farmer I've tried has blood if it isn't factory raised.

The blood in the brown eggs in a battery farm are micro hemorrhages. The same with the white chickens. But the breed of the brown eggs is more likely to have hemorrhages.

That battery looked pretty clean. Food was easy to get to and they had plenty of room.

I’ve found blood in a white egg before. White egg shells are easier to screen with bright lights for blood spots than the brown eggs. Meat spots are also commonly mistaken for blood spots. A blood spot does not mean that the egg is fertilized. Even with a rooster present the eggs will not have blood spots.

Well done! Very informative. One thing you should know. Here is what OU writes: "Although examining battery eggs for blood may not be truly halachically required, it is argued that the original custom of checking eggs should be preserved. That being said, if for whatever reason a battery egg was used without having been checked, the food may nevertheless be eaten. So too, any foods which came into contact with a battery egg which was not checked may be eaten, as well." Be well.

Yeah and this is exactly what I challenge. Battery eggs should not be eaten. Thanks for watching

You wash your hands and then wipe them on your pants?

Dit gaat wel erg ver.

Wow! Interesting research! Take-away, Deuteronomy 22:6-7

Sad life for a chicken.

[@geomundi8333]

for those in the battery. that's why i thought it was important to show the rating system for animal grief. wish we had that in america. i raise my own hens, but love learning more about what makes eggs kosher or not. i have rooster too though :*

[@geomundi8333]

the rabbi gave a very wise decision in saying that you should make sure to raise chickens humanely. You can raise them outdoors with fresh veg, bugs, and sunlight, but still keep them safe and clean. If production falls 10% then you should just build that into your price and in place like Germany they can know its because hens are raised humanely. i've worked on these farms and they probably cleaned up all the dead and farm in general before you came; they woulnt' let the true face of it be known. this is true for all industrial farms, they are horrible places to both animals and workers; i've worked as vet tech in pork baby farm, dairy, beef, and egg. At every farm you see hundreds of deaths per day, and yeah there are 10000 animals there, but that rare is still very high and animals get sick and die very young compared to those raised humanely. besides that, they feed the animals garbage at the industrial farms; mostly roasted soy and corn with amendments; the result is an animal that is always sick and tastes like crap. pastured animals just taste so much better and they don't have misery in them; they are kosher. in biblical times there would have been no leghorns as a breed; and probably few white eggs. I think what they meant is that it shouldn't have a baby chicken in it; we gotta use common sense, he gave us that.

Christianity. Roosters seperate, no need to worry about eggs. Except they come out a chickens butt.

[@carlosandalucia4660]

My dear friend, before doing a test between white and brown eggs, you wash your hands and then instead of using a towel, you dry your hands by rubbing on your shirt and pants. Is this related to a rule in Judaism too? Not in this video, but I see in other videos that, Jews are washing their hands 3 times by using a 2-handled container, instead of holding and washing their hands by holding under the tap water. And the way they wash seems to be just making their hands wet without any soap, I mean I cannot call it real washing. When can you make a Dilemma for this and similar topics? I saw another Rabbi who says Jews should not eat at a Vegan / Vegetarian restaurant if it is not Kosher, including salads and anything else. Because he says, Jews are not allowed to eat bugs....Who in the world will choose to eat bugs and traces of soils if there was any left anywhere in the vegetables in the salad? That response puts the Jews in a very arrogant situation while putting down the rest of the world.

[@theoldman2821]

The washing the hands done with a pitcher with two handles is done for ritualistic cleansing purposes before eating. It's not the right way to wash your hands before cooking or after using the bathroom or anything else. And indeed it's not used for that purpose.

[@nursultantulyakbaycats]

Chasing a bird away to then steal the eggs when the mother can't see it is somehow more compassionate? If people really sought morality they would simply stop eating meat altogether. This is all just a convoluted cope to make ourselves feel better and to justify irrational beliefs.

[@theedrstrangelove]

What[s kosher about those poor chickens cooped up like that. I'm glad to pay twice as much for eggs that come from my local farmer.
