An egg a day is OK

摘要

A decline in egg consumption over recent years is behind the push by Queensland's Sunny Queen Farms to put eggs back on consumers' shopping lists. Sunny Queen is spearheading a campaign to return eggs to their previous popularity and to let consumersknow that it's OK to eat an egg a day. Recent figures show that Australians now eat almost half the eggs they did 60 years ago. In 1938, Australians consumed 243 eggs per year but that figure has almost halved to 156. Sunny Queen General Manager, John O'Hara, said the decrease can be mainly attributed to our fast-paced society where time is of the essence and concerns that eggs cause high cholesterol.
