    How long can unwashed eggs sit out on the counter before going bad?

    Thanks,
    Sonja

    I was told one day on the counter was like one week in the fridge. But I do not know for sure. Our eggs never make it past a coulpe days.

    I have had them for a month as long as you do not wash them. There are some posts on other threads about this.
