i think not. eggs we buy( U.K.) have a sell by date on them and also a
use by date.the ones i bought last night have a display until the 8th.
and use by the 15th. dates on them and they are fresh free range
eggs.April that is ,so you can say a couple of weeks. i have only used
eggs about 2 to 3 days over the use by date in an emergency as i would
hate to tempt fate and end up with salmonella.
quite often i throw 3 or 4 eggs out if the date has been passed, they
are not expensive so better to be safe than sorry.
