I’ve always done that, here in germany. They are supposed to last at least ~2 weeks (or so, idk) at room temperature, after all they are stored like that in stores. But the eggs I have right now are more like 3-4 weeks old, so I prefer to put them in the fridge, because why not? They don’t take much space and last for double as long, so 6 weeks.
Context: A German show which plays after all other shows, and the song is about the children falling asleep.
Also, if you then heard Bernd, you obviously stayed up too long (but that was kinda the point, I love Bernd)
