The whole point of the post is whether eggs are meat or not. The discussion turned hypothetically to a fertilized egg or not being meat, and the answer being an unscientific yes. Your rebuttal was that most people don’t eat fertilized eggs, so therefore = not meat. I asked you how many eggs would have to be fertilized, to which you replied half of peopel would need roosters. Therefore, to conclude this absurd conversation, if 50% rooster ownership nets half of eggs fertilized + 1 eggs, makes them meat.

I think it’s pretty clear that this was silly, but the logic flows correctly.

I don't think my parents would eat eggs on Friday if they thought it might be fertilized, and I think that's the whole point here.

Anyway arguments here are going to be pointless since Catholics eat fish on Fridays anyway, so any logic is already flawed
