Denmark better fucking not.
I'm in the US. Put the fucking pressure on us. Buy literally anything else but American products. Our conservatives need to learn exactly how bad "America First" is, and you can't do that when you sell out.

"Give me eggs and Grรธnland please"
First Greenland. Now the eggs. Shameless ๐คญ
Greenland, eggs, then ham.

*RedWhiteAndBlueLand
Egg and Ham Land
Denmark? The same Denmark they are threatening over Greenland? That Denmark?
I get they are asking all of Europe (also the same Europe they are threatening a trade war with) but this is just full on clown car.
Note that the US will consider the eggs only as payment for not having annexed Greenland in the past, and in no way as guarantee against future annexation.
sure โฌ10 or $100 per egg.
Or... (and this is always an option) Go fuck yourself.
I felt that.
I guess America doesnโt have the cards when it comes to eggs.
I mean did they even say thank you when they asked?
Go to russia for your eggs and leave Denmark alone.
Don't be a traitor Denmark...

There are a few additional points
-
Multiple European countries have gotten similar requests, not just Denmark
-
American egg policy requires washing the eggs while European policy prohibits this, making it highly inconvenient.
-
They would want assurance that America won't suddenly put tariffs on the eggs.
-
If america were to pay upwards of 1โฌ per egg, maybe they'd have a deal.
Thank ou, added to the OP
Dear united states of fucking-over-your-allies and siding-with-the-baddies,
Get fucked.
Sincerely.
What about export tariffs? 500% or some similar decent percentage?
Theyโve asked us in Norway as well, and we said lol no

As an American, Iโm here to warn you that this orange hemorrhoid will go back on any and everything he says and you should not, under any circumstance, believe or trust him. He will take the first opportunity to back out or screw you over. Donโt do it. Remember, him and president musk believ that Americans are willing to tolerate a little pain. Make them reap their own whirlwind and suffer the consequences. Fuck them. Sincerely. And twice on their holy day.
Panama made an exhaustive list of acts of submission to Trump, including selling Panama Canal and deported migrant prisons, Trump's response was to order Pentagon to make invasion plans for Panama.
No eat your own eggs. You don't deserve European eggs.
How long does freight take against the shelf life of an eggywegg?
I know these won't be bleached so they'll last a little longer than US eggyweggs.
If you refrigerate unwashed European eggs, they will last multiple months (I have kept eggs for more then 2 months), way past the expiration date on the packaging (I know because I do it constantly).
Do you do the water test? Or just crack it open and hope for the best??
I do the same as @DouchePalooza@lemm.ee and never have i ever had a rotten egg or anything close to it. I always refrigerate my eggs and they last for a really long time. Even though we don't wash eggs in Denmark like in crazy US we still refrigerate them her. I think it's just easy to do for our food supply chain here and helps keep the eggs fresh.
If you think about it, in nature a hen would naturally be laying eggs over the course of a month (wild hens don't lay eggs every single day) so an egg must be able to survive for minimum a month in outdoor temperatures and stay healthy untill there are enough eggs for the hen to start laying on them and incubate them. A month or 3 in a fridge should be no problem for an egg. Unles of course you wash it and ruin the natural protection layer....
When boiled, instant water test. Other types, when I'm not particularly confident, I just crack open to a bowl.
I'm used to this because I grew up with eggs from hens of friends and family so we never knew when they were laid or how long they were in the hen house... Anyway, with store bought eggs, never had a problem, even after months (only 1 bad batch that came from the supermarket).
@Blaze "If you give us your eggs, we're gonna give you A GREAT DEAL in the exploitation of Greenland's natural resources. You're lucky you're negotiating with President Trump, the BEST DEAL MAKER EVER."
How do you say 'Get fucked' in Danish?
Oh we have many to choose from.
- "skrid ad helvede til" = go to hell
- "fuck af" = fuck off
- "Mรฅ din rรธv klรธ og dine arme vรฆre for korte" = I hope your ass is itching and your arms too short to reach
- "Rend mig i rรธven" = Kiss my ass (literally: run me in the ass)
- "Rend og hop" = run and jump (for me)
- "Sut den" = Suck it
- "Luk rรธven" = Shut the fuck up (literally: close your ass)
hope your arse is itching and your arms are too short to scratch it
We should adopt that one in English, we don't have enough good curses
The washing egg thing would be pointless due to European chickens being vaccinated
"Denmark made clear that they absolutely have eggs", said a news person in German. Which is absolutely funny, because eggs and balls is the same word here.
"Dรคnemark hat klar gemacht, dass sie durchaus Eier haben."
I'll still buy US eggs, even if there's imports. The market will balance itself out when we can raise chickens again.
Yes, let's expose as many people as possible to bird flu.
