The border between Mexico and America has a long history of bootleggers, drug traffickers and gun runners. Now egg smugglers can be added to that list.

    We have cut back on our egg usage but I have a vegetarian daughter who doesn’t like beans, and eggs are a significant part of her diet. Obviously she doesn’t eat fish. I have a severe lactose intolerance so there aren’t many cheeses I eat, and even when I do eat something like Gouda or feta it is very small amounts. Also I’ve never seen local brie or Camembert, my wife would love if there was.

      I could suggest buying quails and eating their eggs. My friend did this and the quails fit in a small wood cabin (as small as a dog house). She had fresh eggs everyday. They are low maintenance compared to chickens.

      Most people don’t consider eggs to be vegetarian. Especially the ones who are vegetarian for animal welfare reasons.

        You are wrong. I’ve met many vegetarians that ate eggs and fish. Vegetarians are not a monoliths.

          I’m not wrong. I used to be a vegetarian. There are different types. Some eat eggs and or milk and some don’t. Most don’t eat eggs, but some do.
