I'm confused. Why cows would get extinct, but the chicken eggs for the bread will still exist?
Umm most white bread does not usually contain eggs; usually flour, water, yeast, oil, and salt. Wheat is apparently self pollinating.
The standard burger bun is brioche (not very nice brioche, granted, but they still call it that)
If it has a yellow outside (like the one on the photo), it has eggs.
Also, that "oil" is bee pollinated too.
Bees no longer pollinating the cows food? I'm assuming they think cows eat only things that are pollinated, and not grass which is propagated by roots.
The only cow food I know that needs insect is clover and alfalfa. Grass, wheat and even soybeans do OK without.
Also the wheat? The shoots might be fine but it wouldn't produce grains.
EDIT: Wheat is wind pollinated.
