Appliances: With the exception of Refrigerators (see May), September and October are the best time to buy big appliances, since itâs when new models start coming out. You can get last yearâs leftovers for less. Bicycles: New models come out at the end of riding season, which is around September.
Hereâs the deal. In America, we are required to refrigerate eggs because of the factory farming practices. The USDA requires that an American egg be power-washed (because many factory farm chickens carry salmonella) and this washing removes the natural layer of protection that an egg has when it is laid.
âA fresh, free-range egg should last beautifully at room temperature for at least a week,â said Tim Hayward, presenter of the Food Programme on BBC Radio 4 and restaurant columnist for the Financial Times. âThe racks in the fridge door are the worst place to store eggs. Warm eggers stand their ground on the basis that supermarkets in continental Europe store their eggs at room temperature and not the fridge. In Europe, eggs are often sitting on an unrefrigerated shelf near the baking supplies.
