Unknown egg date - what is your experience?

[Illia]

I'd have to say, yeah, there's a LOT of eggs being wasted here. Remember, you can store hatching eggs for 3 weeks under temps from 40-65 degrees, and they'll still hatch after a month's incubation without bacterial infection.

If you can do that, you can eat em.

But really, when I find eggs that may have been sitting there for what I know to be more than 2 days - I feed them to the dogs. NO wasting of eggs happens here.

Eat 'em!

What do you think people did before there was refrigeration?

Get over it! In Europe, they don't refrigerate eggs. As long as they haven't been washed, they are coated with "bloom" by the chicken which protects them from bacterial infection. That's why store bought eggs are refrigerated in the US - because they are washed before going to market.
