Eh, good thing factory chicken is a thing of the past in The Netherlands, it’s okay vs decent vs good.

Rondeel is decent: https://youtu.be/zwleQLKU-UI?si=kh7T6b_bV0HMXjzO

Label Rouge (France) is good: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=aHlCEIAOpEk

Yeah sure it’s €4 to €5 per 10 eggs instead of €2.50 but there’s a big difference in quality. You get watery whites, tasteless yolks and paper thin shells with the cheapest eggs. Same for chickens, the Label Rouge ones are really small at 1.5 kg in comparison to faster growing ones.

That contradicts statements on https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2024/08/ex-bank-ceo-gets-24-years-after-falling-for-crypto-scam-causing-bank-collapse/

Victims may never fully recover losses, DOJ says

In the community, people are still struggling to recover, Mitchell told NBC News, noting that some people lost up to 80 percent of their retirement savings. For at least one woman, retirement is impossible now, Mitchell said, and for another local woman, it has become difficult to pay for her 93-year-old mother’s nursing home.

US Attorney Kate E. Brubacher said that it’s hard to say when or if victims will be made whole again.

But it seems like they didn’t let it fail completely and transferred all assets and most liabilities to Dream First Bank? That would be nice for the granny with more than 250K in the account.

Plenty of people lost most of their retirement savings - FDIC only goes up to 250k which isn’t enough for super frugal FIRE. And definitely not enough when you get old and medical bills are crazy high in Murica.

Here’s a link to a consumer review org that actually tested it with standardized loads and measured drying times. They don’t work, takes just as long and cost the same in electricity.

It’s sad that nowadays most “reviews” are just going by feelz and not by numbers. The placebo is strong with this category.
