Egg Freshness

My egg customers ask how long our eggs are good for. I tell them in a refridgerated situation 7 to 10 days. Please enlighten me on the facts.

I keep mine on the kitchen counter. They are good that way for 2 - 3 weeks. Non-refrigerated eggs cook so much better!

In the fridge eggs - I have read that commercial eggs are about 30 - 45 days old already when they get to the store.

I know to boil and egg and have it peel I set eggs aside in the fridge for 2 - 3 weeks at a time.

I guess there really is no magic number.

Eggs turn over fast in my kitchen unless I set them aside for a reason. We use sometimes 12 a day, even more if I am baking so they don't hang around long.

I had heard the same thing about commercial eggs. I was told that eggs straight from the coop could be kept for 6-8 weeks, not that you would need to.

I hadn't realized that non-refrigerated eggs cook better, I will have to try that MissPrissy
