Choosing eggs is not nearly as simple as it should be. After all, the average egg weighs about 2 ounces. How many decisions can you possibly have to make for something so small and seemingly simple? Well, let’s see: Brown or white? Large or small? Organic or not?

And those decisions are just the tip of the iceberg. Egg cartons can be stamped with any number of labels, some meaningful, others not so much.

It's not always easy to separate fact from fiction when it comes to eggs. Below are some of the most common misconceptions.

Myth: Brown eggs are different than white.

Fact: The only difference between a brown and white egg is the color of the shell, which is merely a reflection of the breed of the hen. In general, but not always, hens with white feathers and earlobes lay white eggs and those with dark feathers and red earlobes lay brown eggs.

One isn’t healthier, more “natural,” or more eco-friendly than the other.  There aren’t any differences in nutritional quality, flavor, or cooking characteristics.

Myth: Free-range eggs come from hens that roam freely outdoors.

Fact: The claims are not regulated for eggs, according to Consumer Reports. So there is no guarantee that the hen that laid the eggs ever saw the light of day. Of course, it may have spent time outdoors, but the “free range” label doesn’t mean anything. The following labels are also meaningless when it comes to eggs: “free roaming,” “hormone free,” and “raised without antibiotics.”

Myth: Organic eggs are healthier.

Fact: They certainly can be, but it all depends on the chicken’s diet. Organic eggs come from hens that are fed a 100-percent organic diet. However, what really matters when it comes to nutrition is whether the hens were raised on pasture. Studies, such as those conducted at Penn State University  and by Mother Earth News, found that eggs from chickens that ate grass and insects contained higher levels of omega-3 fat, and vitamins E, A, and in some cases D.

If you want eggs from hens that are raised on pasture or spend a lot of time outdoors, then you’ll have to find a farmer you trust at your local farmers’ market.

Myth: Egg substitutes are simply eggs (or egg whites) without the shells.

_Fact:_Most products have added stabilizers, thickeners, vitamins, carotenes, and, sometimes, spices, according to Marion Nestle, author of What to Eat. She also points out that they cost about twice as much as real eggs. (A pound of egg substitutes weighs slightly less than a dozen small eggs.)

Of course, if you can’t eat egg yolks for health reasons or have no use for them, egg substitutes are a good option, and most products only have a tiny percentage of additives. Just read the labels before buying.

A Day In Hand announces 1st international
(Same-sex hand holding) Sshh! Week
on International Day Against Homophobia & Transphobia (IDAHO)

Monday 17th May- Sunday 23rd May

Monday to Sunday, make your passion public. Your working week deserves a little affection!

A Day In Hand founder, David Watkins says, “Because IDAHO falls on a Monday this year, and because of the success of our popular Same-sex Hand Holding Saturdays, we have decided to create a Same-Sex Hand Holding Week starting on the International Day Against Homophobia May 17th. We continue receive more and more positive stories and photos from all over the world, of people who have held hands with someone of the same gender in public. Why limit the hand holding to a Saturday? Your working week deserves a little affection.  It is also the birthday of the late Harvey Milk (seminal gay and lesbian rights activist) on Saturday 22nd May. What better way to mark this date than during International Same-Sex Hand Holding Week.”

Tony Fenwick, co-chair Schools Out and Gareth Thomas, Welsh rugby player

Gareth Thomas, Welsh rugby player endorses our campaign and says “Being out and visible is so important for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Trans people because it allows our existence to be acknowledged in communities throughout the world. Holding hands with friends or your loved ones is a simple yet powerful act that sends clear messages that LGBT people are just like anyone else. I hope that A Day In Hand and IDAHO will inspire people to go public during the Same-sex hand holding Week starting May 17th. I find the site of lesbian and gay couples holding hands affirming and inspiring and I hope more couples can hold hands in public and lead the way in this silent revolution. A Day In Hand campaign continues to break down the boundaries of same-sex love.”

Where? The World

When? The first international Same-sex hand holding (Sshh) Week will begin on the International Day Against Homophobia & Transphobia (Monday 17th May) and end Sunday 23rd May.

What?  We are asking people to find someone of the same gender, and hold their hand in public. It may be for only 1 min or for the whole week! We would love people to have their photo taken holding hands and upload it to our website by sending to [email protected].

Who?  The population (gay or straight, all faiths, genders, races, abilities, single or in a relationship). Supporters include Stephen Fry, Sandi Toksvig, Paul O’Grady, Brian Paddick, Amy Lame, Boy George, 4 Poofs and A Piano, London Mayor Boris Johnson and former London Mayor Ken Livingstone, activists Peter Tatchell & Cleve Jones (Harvey Milk’s aide) have already endorsed the A Day In Hand campaign and many more will be holding hands on the first Sshh! Saturday.

Why? The images sent to [email protected] will be spread throughout the world via our website.

Watkins adds “Same-sex hand holding (Sshh!) is a silent revolution for LGBT people, because nothing needs to be said: no bold speeches, no reactive arguments, no war of words. Each LGBT person has the power to change the hearts and minds of people in their local community quietly, subtly, by simply holding hands publicly and owning their space. However, hand holding is a simple powerful gesture that can happen anywhere, at any time.”

Derek Lennard, IDAHO-UK Coordinator said “It is marvelous to be working with “A Day in Hand” again and sending out a positive message around the world that LGBT people are proud of who we are and who we love.”
