Other than for the shells hens are incapable of producing lesser (or higher) "quality" eggs so long as they produce eggs, regardless of diet... the nutritional value will be identical by weight.

Did I say egg quality had to do with the nutritional value? Not once did that concept ever pass from my fingers to the screen. However, there are lesser grades of eggs, related mostly to cleanliness, size, volume of air cell and quality of albumen. I refer you to a quick reference on the Georgia Egg Commission, a government situated within the borders of the Untied States, just so you don't think I invent this stuff (which obviously I don't). http://www.georgiaeggs.org/pages/grading.html Feel free to suggest to yourself quietly that I am lying when I point to this site. |

You forgot to accuse me of anti-american sentiment :-) That's a given. A blind man could see it. It's just gotten too old. At any rate, the system you describe is used for milk where I live. It's never on sale, by law. Big whoop. Still some milk is better than other brands. I've hand picked eggs from hen houses, so I know a bad one when I see it. The eggs are fine, here. nancy (why did they put the henhouse in the middle of the cattle pasture? I had to beat that damn bull to the fence while carrying eggs, every day) |

The appearance (yolk color) and flavor of an egg is dramatically affected by (the quality of) the feed and living conditions of the hen. Thus the flavorless junk factory eggs. I think it is long past time for you to adjust your meds. Perhaps some therapeutic pastime is in order. I know - go out to your barn and play with your trailer park. Turn out the lights and demand, in a loud booming voice, that they all must join your church and give you all their money or the sun will not come back. Regards. Ken.

No matter how you slice the cake whole wheat flour (especially bulk) doesn't cost 3X the price of white wheat flour (especially packaged).

I also noticed that the prices were high. I always buy large eggs and they're usually around $.90 but they were over a dollar recently except at the store that had them on sale.

Why price of eggs skyrocketed?
The real reason is the increased demand for high-protein, low-carb foods. Eggs
producers have realized that they can charge more and it won't affect sales. The same reason is behind the price increase in meats. |
