  Because sometimes the house gets up to 26°C inside when it’s 43.6°C outside, like last week.

    Where do you live that it’s 40 degrees??

      If only it was 40°C, that would be a common summer’s day.

      That day, the road I drove home on was 51°C at 16:00 and the overnight temperature didn’t drop below 27.2°C.

      So, yes, eggs in the fridge.

      Straya, possibly?

      Also, they will keep longer in the fridge, even though you don’t need to.

      Lots of places have that. Mostly around the equator, and much of the southern hemisphere

  Living in Aus during a heatwave, I’d rather my eggs remain raw and cold until I’m ready to cook them, rather than them spontaneously cooked in the pantry lol

  Eggs are also refrigerated in Denmark, that’s why we used to be such a great ally to the US.

  Do people not refrigerate their eggs? I live in Australia and we always have them in the fridge.

    Depends on if the eggs get washed or not

    US eggs are washed and will rot on the counter, most other countries do not and so it really doesn’t matter (I could have whether the washing is done or not backwards tbf, but I know it has to do with that)

    UK here - it’s common not to. I think they technically will last longer in the fridge, but they’re absolutely fine kept out.

    I’m in aus (Newy), and we don’t use the fridge, even in summer. Never had a problem.

    Eggs aren’t refrigerated in the UK. They are sold on normal shop shelves and people put them in their cupboards
