Homegrown vs store bought

I find that with homegrown eggs it is easier to make sunny side up eggs or fried eggs as the yolk is firmer and does not break. Store bought eggs don't work as well.

Edited for clarity.

Yea that's the best part! There was a big write-up in Mother Earth News about all the added benefits of farm raised, free-range chicken eggs vs. those "other" eggs.

Fact: There is no proof that the cholesterol in an egg will have nothing to do with ones blood cholesterol. Enjoy your eggs.

This is true. Blood cholesterol is a complicated mix of genetics and food. I eat whatever I want and have "textbook" perfect cholesterol, even though I'm over 50, according to my doctor and DH, bless his heart (literally), eats better than I and does have a problem with it.

Home grown eggs are like home grown tomatoes, once you've had 'em ........the store bought ones just don't match up!!!
