Lidl eggs

Does anyone else find Lidl eggs strangely tasteless with a green tinge?

I brought the free range ones once and they didn't taste so good, so used them in a cake. The other week I thought I'd try the organic, but they taste of nothing at all and scrambled eggs looked vaguely green!

We use their cheap packs of 10 eggs and have never had a problem, and that is with an omelette-mad 21 year-old daughter!

Sounds like alien hens to me.

Yep we use the 10 pk cheap ones also with no probs. No shops round me can match them in price.

I have never had a problem with them however I haven't been in Lidl for months so can't comment on them recently.

I often buy freerange eggs from Lidl and they are fine.

i usually buy the free range ones and have not noticed anything odd about them at all. They look and taste fine to me.

I particularly noticed this too. Was unimpressed with the free range ones. Nothing like as nice looking and tasting as the ones from Sainsbury's. Small and puny looking with a slightly neon-looking yolk and tasteless.

Noticed this a couple of weeks ago. I suppose they could be technically free-range, but not particularly well-fed/looked after?? Suspicious as to whether they were the real McCoy and wouldn't buy again.
