American eggs
Can anyone tell me why the eggs taste so odd here? I don't notice the difference between them and their cousins in Ireland unless I hard boil them, then the difference can't be missed. Holds for white ones, brown ones, free range ones and the other ones.
No serial comma belongs there, I believe, because I was comparing the free range kind to the other kind, whatever they are called. A ham and eggs type of thing, sort of.
While on the subject, the butter isn't half as good as Irish butter, but I wouldn't say it tasted odd: more like there is little taste to it at all.

Different types of cows have different cream amounts in their milk s. The Holstein the basic commercial cow gives the largest volumn of milk and it has less cream. A family cow would usually be a different breed as you don't need as much milk but would want more cream.

I didn't realize that Dutch butter was dull. I remember the thing that surprised me about the Dutch dairy products: regular milk (AmE ``whole milk'') had 4.2% milk
