Eggs are to be legally reclassified as chicken in all Alabama restaurants, cafés, eateries and slophouses from now on, it’s emerged.

The decision was made after a group of pro-animal life activists put pressure on the state government.

‘The moment an egg passes through a hen’s vagina, it becomes a chicken. To treat them any differently would be cruel and should be punished by God,’ said Billie Jean Bob Cooter.

The move is expected to cause mass confusion at eateries. Customers who ask for chicken could get either the traditional interpretation of chicken or the new classification.



‘Customers will not be allowed to differentiate between the two. That would be bigoted and wrong,’ said Senator Bob Billy Jean Cooter.

As a result of the government ruling, scrambled chicken will be right off the menu.
