What the heck are battery and free-range eggs? *_*
There's "Happy chicken's happy eggs" in Finland and I buy those. Can't think of any reason why eggs would be happy.

Uh ... *checks* battery. o.o
Wow! I learned something today, I eat battery eggs! ^_^
I eat battery eggs. I might start eating free-range, but there's no guarantee. I will however probably start noticing the difference though :p
On an odd tangent, how the heck do 12-20 chickens manage to lay eggs when cramped like that? All the crap I read in that McDonald's chicken farm book is coming back to me.
I've never bought eggs. How can u tell the difference?
:whaaa: I've adopted this smiley
We only have free range eggs where I live. So I don't really have a choice

If it's Free Range, it should state so on the carton. When you crack open the thin shell of a battery egg you get a very light yolk and the white stuff is usually runny. A Free Range egg has a much thicker shell because they are fed better, the yolk is a definite yellow/orange colour and the while stuff is thick. You can also taste the difference. Happy chickens make better eggs.

B!B!B!
Now I get the difference between the two. I guess that battery system is illegal here in Finland, or something. We have only happy chickens and happy eggs.

Free range.
Unless I'm going to throw them at people's houses. But I think I've grown out of that phase now
I go to Bi-Lo and get "Fresh White Large Grade A Free Range Eggs"
Eggs are the shizzle!

I could sail by
on the Winds of Silence
And maybe they won't notice
But this time I think
It'd be better if I swim
I always get free range. Battery is cruel therefore we dont get it on principle, plus free range tastes nicer too.
We used to get our eggs from our neighbour, but foxes ate all his chickens...so we don't anymore.
Chaos
I like foxes....*conflicted*
I might pick up some free-range chicken eggs the next time. Right now I have 10 eggs to eat, which is...about 5 days of eating if I eat daily.
Hi, my name is John....Joe
Is there really a difference in taste or anything?
Anyway, I eat free range. I like 'em no matter what, as long as they're cooked.

Yes, there is quite a difference in taste.

Major difference as in you take a spoonful of one, then another, and you go, "Wow! This is this and this is that!"? Or is it a slight difference where you put them into two seperate bowls and it takes hours to realize the difference?

The cruel ones. I think that's all we have here, unless Eggland's Best are free-range. They're all expensive, though.
