We buy the cheep-cheep-cheaper eggs. We were given some eggs fresh off the farm a couple of weeks ago, and except for the richer, darker colour, I didn't notice a difference in the taste, but Roy does notice a difference.

When I first moved to the UK I was afraid to eat the eggs because the grocery stores and shops store the eggs on a shelf instead of refrigerating them.  I haven't gotten sick yet from eating an un- refrigerated egg.

Yes, definitely better eggs, but expensive for what they are, we buy the cheaper ones because of the cost not necessarily the taste, hens are treated a whole lot better now than they used to be.

I don't use a lot of eggs as my stomach is not crazy about them but yes, I buy, free run...free range...cage free....so many different names now. Chickens sitting trapped in cages does horrible things to them. It was one documentary (about chicken farms) that made me ill to watch.

I'm sure the  $5 eggs are better but my crew wouldn't appreciate the difference.  Sadly,  I buy the cheapest,  extra large eggs....

I buy our eggs from someone who lives half a mile away. He keeps a dozen chickens in his back garden,  I called round and got two dozen this morning.  Straight out of the chickens still covered in muck and feathers,  cost £2 wonderful eggs.

The first thing you should do before eating your eggs, whether scrambled, fried, boiled is to test them, put the eggs to be used in a  saucepan/ container of water enough to cover them, if they float, really float throw them out, they are starting too/ or off. As far as caged/ battery  and free range go, taste and protein etc, there is no difference what so ever, the yolk between the two may be a little different in colour,  but they are exactly the same, it is like evert thing else if it looks good it must be better-- all phycological. Their should be no significant with the  price of the same weight eggs.       :)
