Cracking news for egg lovers

October 10, 2008

eggs.jpgEgg lovers of the world rejoice! News reaches Guru that today is World Egg Day which, as if you didn't already know, is "a unique opportunity to help raise awareness of the benefits of eggs and is celebrated in countries all around the world".

Is this some kind of yolk? Guru finds it very hard to believe that this most special of days is being celebrated across the globe.

What, for example, are employers in the UK doing to mark the occasion? Free eggs in the staff canteen? Complimentary egg cup for the best employees? Egg pelting the senior management in the car park?

According to the International Egg Commission (yes, really), eggs are versatile, high in protein and healthy nutrients. Guru just finds himself sick of all this egg propaganda.

Anyway, the egg-heads at the commission might like to know that 2008 has been deemed by the UN as the International Year of the Potato.

Why just settle for one day when you can celebrate for a whole year? Stick that in your tiny egg cups boys...

Hi, my name is Eddie Morales and I am a student from Illinois Institute of Technology. I am currently involved in a project where we are trying to creat Buzz Marketing for Pasteurized Shelled eggs made by Davidson's Safest Choice. If anyone is interested in eating or using safe and health eggs, they might want to check out Davidson's Safest Choice Eggs @ www.safeeeggs.com or check your local jewel or dominick's. Also if you have any question feel free to email or comment back. We are interested in knowing who "egg lovers" really are. Thanks.

About Guru

Guru is Personnel Today's notorious HR commentator. He's been working in HR for far too long and observes every passing management fad with a mixture of anger and amusement. His blog is the one thing saving his long-suffering wife, Mrs Guru, from having to endure too much of his ranting about the big HR stories of the day.
