At least you’re smarter than those guys
Has this work week been particularly stressful or frustrating? I leave you with this pick-me-up for the weekend — at least you’re smarter than the guys in the following story:
The menu at the Coffee Garden at 900 East and 900 South in Salt Lake City has included a scrumptious selection of quiche for about 10 years.
The recipe calls for four fresh eggs for each quiche.
A Salt Lake County Health Department inspector paid a visit recently and pointed out that research by the Food and Drug Administration indicates that one in four eggs carries salmonella bacterium, so restaurants should never use more than three eggs when preparing quiche.
The manager on duty wondered aloud if simply throwing out three eggs from each dozen and using the remaining nine in four-egg-quiches would serve the same purpose.
The inspector wasn’t sure, but she said she would research it.

Reply to Derek SlaterWow.
I hope that this story is made up.
Reply to wangSnopes didn’t verify whether the story was true; I’m inclined to think it’s fictional.
@Annie: Good point. Patently Ineffective tag added.
@Derek: You know, that’s actually a pretty good idea.
