but for real tho. do i toss the eggs that have been in the fridge before the power went out or are they ok?

 

[key west chick]

I would probably eat them. I have been known to let my eggs sit on the kitchen counter for a week before I bother to put them in the fridge, if ever.

To tell you the truth, I don't know. Eggs are fine without refrigeration for a long time. Once an egg has been refrigerated, I thought it had to stay refrigerated or it went bad. But I'm still so new at this. I guess I'd err on the side of caution and toss them, but could be totally wrong on that.

uncooked eggs should be good..... but egg salad? Toss it
