Default Egg Grades


Just out of curiosity, I checked the egg section when I was buying some
today at the supermarket, for *grades*. I found that everything was
marked Grade AA with two exceptions. Those exceptions we

1. Jumbos of the same brand that was by far the most prevalent on the
shelves were Grade A while all of their other sizes were Grade AA

2. One brand of marked-organic XLG and LG eggs - and I think that were the
only sizes available from that brand - were Grade A.

I did not see any jumbos by any other supplier than the one mentioned
above (Trafficanda Ranch). So there were no AA jumbos available. While
this is a tiny sampling, I'm still wondering of there is something about
jumbos that make them inherently Grade A. I don't care what I eat,
between AA and A; this is just a curiosity thing.
