[Sca-cooks] Vegetarians and Fish, was Christmas Plans (Was Cake Sotelties)

[Huette von Ahrens]

Interesting about eggs.  I can understand not eating fertilized
eggs, but hens lay eggs whether or not they have been with
a rooster and most eggs you buy in the supermarket haven't 
even come close to being fertilized.  How would eating an
unfertilized egg be killing a potential living creature?
