Perhaps they're sense of taste has changed. Have you asked them? |

The fried eggs from my pastured chickens taste wonderful, just like their ancestors used to. |

Felicity, do you mean the eggs of the ancestors or did you eat the ancestors? Bob |

I meant the ancestors of the eggs - I can't be eating the original ones again, now can I? :-) |

Oh, right, Bob, I see what you mean!! No, I didn't eat the birds. I tend to give names to them and can't bring myself to eat anything with a name. I did wonder if names like Sage or Onion or Stuffing would make a difference, but I haven't tried that yet! |

Because your taste buds deteriorate over time? Because no one can do it like Mum? who knows? nell |

I buy mine from a farm and I often have double yokers. They are much better than shop bought eggs. |

I think chickens and eggs taste horrible these days due to the food that they receive in these mass farming facilities. we have our own chickens and eggs - they eat (the chickens) our home grown veg and other bits and pieces from the garden and they taste wonderful. I have heard of an hotel in England someplace that got quiet a name for itself for its home grown turkeys that were feed on amongst other stuff large portions of sage and onion |

Because your taste buds die off as you get older Gwynne (to whom everything still tastes fine, honestly, really) |

I used to have some chickens. They were called Sweet 'n' Sour, Soup, Korma, Chasseur, and Kiev. The best eggs I've ever had. The cockerel was called Pox! Kxx |

Free range eggs are definately much better, well worth paying a bit extra for. I have to agree that bacon is useless - I like mine to go crispy - almost impossible these days. Jack |

Ahhh - you're not buying the right sort of bacon!!! You must get Dry Cure - it hasn't got that added water and it goes lovely and crispy. Again it is more expensive, but again worth every penny!!! Maz. XX |
