What happens when you pour molten aluminium into an anthill?

Eggs are pretty horrific from an animal rights point of view.

You only need female chickens to lay eggs, so almost all the male chicks are disposed of by gassing with carbon dioxide (if they're unlucky) or grinding (if they're lucky).

Hundreds of millions of chicks are hatched and then killed within a day because they're male.

Note that the type of egg production (caged, barn, pastured, free range) doesn't make any difference here.

I'm sure me and OP agree with you. But most people are incapable of going straight to vegan.

Also, keep in kind that eggs CAN be humane and not a source of death - it is just that the current industry is.
