"I would be s.o.l. if I got any bad ones, because I would never know it. I empty the eggs out of the store carton into an egg tray in my fridge, so brand, dates and codes are lost in the trash!"

Really bad idea for a couple of reasons. Other than no info/dates etc, the fridge door that normally houses those egg trays are actually the hottest part of you fridge. Not good for eggs. Better for less perishable items like condiments etc.

I buy my eggs at the farmers market on Sat. They are more expensive but worth it. I feel like I "know" the chickens. The farmer tells me the craziest colored eggs are from the craziest chickens! LOL! She can tell you what egg came from what chicken. She names them all and takes good care of them.
