[BITList] Off Topic - No More Eggs by the Dozen: EU Micromanages British Sales «

[HUGH]

Colin,

It looks to me like more of the same from the US right, ever vigilant for ammunition to further their cause.  We don't buy supermarket rolls in packs of six - Jim, the Pakistani who owns the bakery, puts 4, 5 or 6 in a bag with a pair of tongs according to what is asked for, and he doesn't look up the EU regulations first.  The local Coop has a bin full of rolls with tongs hanging on a string - self-service ditto.  All the local bakeries sell rolls individually.  And eggs come either in packs of 6, 12, or singly as required.  Hens lay them singly, EU notwithstanding.

Hugh.
