There actually is no such thing as bad cholesterol. There's poor diets, which lead to inflammation, which the body clearly tells you be producing more cholesterol to contain the damage.
I finally heard something that makes sense with this egg bullshit. It seems governments are yet again doing their job by imposing unreasonable cleaning and equipment costs on egg suppliers. This drives down production, and drives up prices. Wouldn't be surprised if they're mandating slaughtering of healthy fowl as well.

Yeah, I've also read that we are the only country that "forces" suppliers to remove special membrane from outside the egg, hence why everywhere else eggs don't need to be stored in fridges... except here
We live far enough out, and I know people in our area sell eggs, need to make the switch.
We only salt our food while cooking, never once done. Most outside food is already plenty salty for us. I know it's fiction, but in Robinson Crusoe the native guy tries salt and can't stand it because his taste buds have never been exposed. And I think it's valid point that if you lower your salt intake, your taste buds will adjust. But it is important to keep your potassium and sodium levels in balance. Too little or too much of either is bad for you.
Going no added salt can be rough though, first months at least - our pallets are so used to it after all.
Online claims have emerged, corroborated by others, that the popular “Producer’s Pride” chicken feed sold by the Tractor Supply chain has been recently altered and that its new formulation is causing chickens to stop laying eggs. Some suggest a deliberate reduction in the amount of protein in the feed may be causing the reduction in egg production.
You should remember farming was a majority activity in this country, that has slowly been eroded by banks. The world you live in now did not exist in 1945.
I think the giant shift from 90% of the population being farmers to less than 10% was mostly due to mechanization
Yeah...salt in your diet only counts if you actually put in on from a salt shaker.
That is what ketchup is for.
We have a planter box with some tomatoes, arugula,

Yes and no. It wasn't just the development of the tractor, but the need to finance it that broke the small community. Before the tractor the money a farmer made stayed in the community. But with the need to finance it flowed out to the banks and cities. But more importantly what was the result? Jobs moving out of the country, and people following. Food becoming mass produced, and poisonous. People becoming dependent on government over family and community.
If you engage in real farming, it will take some time, like any startup, but it doesn't have to be that hard if you use holistic practices to work with your ecosystem, not against it. And there is a LOT of money to be made supplying people with local, organic produce.
We only salt when we cook, never after. If you taste while you're cooking, shouldn't have to salt after.

Squash, okra, peppers, watermelon, a few other things. Damned grasshoppers ate bean plants. Electric fence around so that armadillos would not dig up the garden.
Edit: this is on our farm.
they don't actually put in on their food from a salt shaker
First time I saw some mangy kid licking the salt shaker at a restaurant was the last time I used a salt shaker at a restaurant.
When I saw a video of a homeless guy in SF washing his bare asshole in a public water fountain was when I decided not to drink from public water fountains anymore.
and if you have family members that prefer more salt than the other members or less salt, what happens then?

We used to have chickens and enjoyed their eggs, but the need to let them out and put them in again each day makes it hard to go on vacations.
