Lee Kyung-sil is inundated with criticism about the egg business. Why? I'm number four, but it's more expensive than number one



Netizens are arguing about comedian Lee Kyung-sil's egg business.

On the 16th, Cho Hye-ryeon released the product on her account, promoting Lee Kyung-sil's recently launched egg product "Different from packaging"The harmony of yellow and white."

The egg product that Lee Kyung-sil sells is eggshell number 4. The price of one plate of 30 was set at an average of 15,000 won.




In response, some netizens criticized the price for being excessive. Egg egg eggshell number is a number that tells you the breeding environment. 1 refers to radial breeding, 2 refers to plain yarn in a shed, 3 refers to an improved cage, and 4 refers to an existing cage. The No. 1 egg is the egg with the best breeding environment, and the egg sold by Lee Kyung-sil corresponds to '4' with the lowest breeding environment for chickens.

However, the price was criticized for offering a price similar to or higher than that of the top column 1 of the eggshell number.

Therefore, the supplier of eggs to Lee Kyung-sil should recognize and respect that egg producers are necessary to each other regardless of their egg numbers"Our animal welfare section is expensive because of the good environment and respect for animals, not because of better quality," he explained. There are no bad eggs. This is why we need egg number 4 in the market, why we want to improve the situation at farm number 4, and why the standard for purchasing eggs should be quality rather than eggshell number," the notice said.




Some netizens pointed out that `The reason why we need eggs No. 4 in the market is because there are consumers who are in dire need of affordable prices of W4-5,000 a head.'"Irony that animal welfare is when we only have eggs in a small chicken cage. I'm not talking about selling No. 4 at a high price, but I'm talking about selling No. 4 at a high price, but this is a weird explanation.'
