    No, the claim is not true as presented. It is a misleading exaggeration of a real but much narrower development. What’s actually happening Companies like The EVERY Company and Onego Bio produce egg white proteins (primarily ovalbumin) through precision fermentation. They use genetically modified yeast or fungi (fed sugar and water in tanks) to make proteins that are molecularly identical to those found in chicken eggs. These are sold as powders for use as ingredients in processed foods—not as whole eggs that look like the brown egg in the image. The FDA has issued “no questions” letters under the GRAS (Generally Recognized As Safe) process for these ingredients (EVERY in 2023; Onego Bio in September 2025). Products containing EVERY’s proteins (OvoPro and related ingredients) began appearing in items sold at Walmart (and also Target and Amazon) starting around late 2025 / early 2026. They are used in baked goods, protein products, and other processed foods. Brands that use the ingredient decide whether (and how) to list it on the label. It is not always clearly called out as “fermented egg protein” or similar, which is the main point of contention for critics. What is not true There are no whole lab-grown eggs (complete eggs with shells, yolks, and whites grown in a lab) approved or sold in cartons at Walmart, Target, or restaurants. Nothing matching the dramatic image of a brown egg labeled as a “lab sample” is on store shelves. It is not being “secretly” sold as a conspiracy. The companies publicly discuss their FDA status, production scale-up, and retail presence. The lack of clear labeling on finished products is a legitimate transparency issue for some consumers, but it is not a hidden federal plot. Context This is ingredient technology (similar in concept to how some cheeses use fermentation-derived rennet), not cell-cultured meat or whole eggs. It is different from plant-based products like JUST Egg. No evidence supports the idea that ordinary shell eggs in grocery stores or restaurants have been replaced by lab-grown versions. In short: fermented egg proteins as food ingredients have regulatory clearance and are in some products at major retailers. The viral claim that “lab grown eggs” (as whole eggs) are federally approved and secretly flooding Walmart, Target, and restaurants is false.

    So ahead of BABA report the three money numbers (for me, you can have yours): -red box, cloud growth: ---they guided to 45%, I want to see a 50% there, and frankly if they ever want to rerate to a decent multiple we need 70-80% growth on ebit. -yellow box, ecommerce ebit: ---they guided to negative 6-8% CMR growth this quarter, which is disastrous. What kind of a business is this if, when you need to money to spend on AI, you can not squeeze fees out of sellers on your platform like amazon does? can the ministry of AI or whoever runs that talk to SAMR pls. I think the expectation is to see flattish ebit YoY. I want to see it up. -blue box, "under the rug" ---here is where they sink all the expenses related to model development new initiatives etc etc, the magic box. none of the other two numbers can be read in isolation from this. Cloud growth is dependent on this number, in part. We need this number down, because usd2bn of "new stuff" opex a quarter when your cloud ebit is just usd500m AND you are not able to make money from merchants is weak execution. TYFYATTM

    @MemphisHoller @MemphisChamber Smart! Tell the people who want to spend billions in Memphis that “we don’t want your money or jobs here.” Brilliant thinking. Will go down as similar to AOC telling Amazon that the Bronx didn’t need their money. Memphis will never be anything but a ********.

    @AmazonHelp All the responses are SOPs and not specific to my issue. This not a new delivery address and I had multiple orders already delivered there including 2 yesterday. I could have picked it up if there was a option given. I can understand no use in reaching amazon support.

    Work life balance isn't about turning your phone off at 5 PM. Balance comes from knowing yourself and accepting who you are. Amazon is moving away from remote work and bringing employees back to the office. They can afford to do it. They don't need remote work to retain talent. In Spain, absenteeism is above 7%. That means a company with 10 employees effectively has almost one person off work throughout the year. Negative signals pointing to problems on both sides of the employee employer relationship. Because for a good relationship to exist, the most important thing is being in the right place. And I'm not talking about a physical place. The mistake we all make is trying to fit different people into the same way of working. Someone can be happy working twelve hours a day on something they feel is theirs and miserable working seven hours in an environment they hate. Someone else needs to completely switch off at five. Neither has found the right balance if they're not in the right place.

    My doc prescribed an Omega-3 supplement that UnitedHealth/Optum denied. GoodRx/Walgreens/Amazon Pharmacy: $280 for 90-day supply @costplusdrugs came in at $60 for 90-day supply @mcuban for the win!! It would’ve been $20 with insurance coverage. Something is seriously broken.

    AI shopping agents can rank Amazon. They can't call the estate sale, check the back-lot dealer, or track down the small shop with the one vintage chair you actually want. Built Trovefox to close that gap. Flat-fee research by humans plus AI. Live soon.

    @AmazonHelp @amazonIN why it is so difficult to ask Amazon to investigate the issue and if the commitment has been done by executive why I should bear the consequences? It took multiple followups to just ask for investigation. Also asked multiple times to CC.

    @Sacha_Marina @JonnyManana @allfamilypharma There are no human ivermectins on Amazon. They used to have Fenben, but no longer carry it. Go to the FEED STORE and get ivermectin injectable. Mix about 1/4 teaspoon in some juice and slug it down. It's the same stuff, and will not hurt you. I know literally dozens of folks doing this.

    Confirmed by The Verge. Staff watched the entire 1 hour 35 minute runtime on the US Amazon Prime Video app before it was pulled. The theatrical release is still set for Friday, August 21. No statement from Amazon or Lionsgate yet. Looks like a pure scheduling error — the full listing, artwork, and stream were live. Classic case of the platform moving faster than the theatrical window.

    SCALING THE SKIES FOR LAST-MILE LOGISTICS 📈⚡ Watching Amazon push its drone delivery footprint into 500 municipalities highlights a massive shift in how retail giants plan to conquer urban and suburban transit. While regulatory and infrastructure hurdles remain real tests, shortening delivery windows down to minutes changes the baseline expectation for consumer convenience. The logistics playbook is being rewritten overhead.

    Someone hid an AirTag inside a rare book and watched it drive 2,000 miles to its death. The destination was a warehouse near Las Vegas. Its only job, according to sources, is destroying books to feed AI models. Welcome to the future of reading. First, the boring part. AI models like Alexa's brain or Claude need text, and lots of it. Books are the good stuff. Clean sentences, real ideas, decades of human knowledge in a tidy package. A model trained on books learns to write like humans actually write. No books, dumber robot. Now the destructive part. Old or rare books often have no digital version. So to get the text, you scan the physical pages. The fastest way is to cut the spine off and feed the loose pages through a machine, like a very literate paper shredder. The text survives. The book does not. Here's the clever, slightly evil part. Amazon got in trouble before for allegedly using pirated e-books. Lawsuits followed. But buying a physical book? That's clean. You own it. Owning a book apparently includes the right to destroy it. Legal ownership, permanent removal. Rare copies that took decades to surface vanish in an afternoon. Which brings us back to the AirTag. Reporters at 404 Media noticed a suspicious bulk order of 1,000 rare books. They hid the tracker inside one volume and followed it across America. It ended at an Amazon facility near Las Vegas, internally called VGT3. Sources said destroying books for AI training is all the Vegas warehouse does. The team's logo is reportedly a dinosaur. A dinosaur. The company that kills books picked as its mascot the thing that killed the first books. Forbes cited internal documents describing a plan to, quote, destructively scan all the books in the world. All of them. Anthropic is buying books too, though they've been quieter about the shredding part. The irony is doing cartwheels. Amazon started as an online bookstore. Its founder famously packed boxes in a garage. Now the company buys rare books anonymously, cuts their spines off, and recycles the evidence. Historians are furious, and reasonably so. A scanned copy is not the same as a surviving one. Marginalia, printing quirks, the object itself, all gone. Once the last copy is pulped, there is no undo button. Maybe that's the real lesson. Buying something legally doesn't make destroying it wise. We decided as a civilization to preserve rare books. An AI training goal just decided otherwise, one spine at a time.

    Amazon can make your stock unsellable without telling you, and it will not show up as a sale or a return. When you send inventory in, you declare a best-by date. Amazon then splits that shipment across a lot of warehouses, sometimes one or two units to a location. The busy ones sell through. The quiet ones sit. Anything still sitting when it passes the date you declared gets moved out of your sellable count. Here is the check. Seller Central, Reports, Fulfilment, Inventory Ledger. Switch it to the detailed view and read the reason column. Damaged means Amazon broke it and owes you money. Expired means nobody owes you anything, and your problem is the date you declared or how thin the stock got spread. Check the reason before you file anything.
