Do you keep your eggs in or out of the fridge?

Keeping them in the fridge doesn't make them last any longer.

As an American in the UK, was discussing this topic with my family at home. Interesting article explains the reasoning behind the differences:

For day to day use fridge or not is purely preference.

However, I would recommend anyone doing any serious baking to keep them at room temperature. Cold eggs is one of the main reasons for humped cakes and flopped soufflee!

I keep mine in the fridge (but take how many out I need if I am baking) because OH is a klutz and managed to wipe out a full tray of 30 when he was attempting to make a sandwich!!!

In a basket; not sure if that's a good idea?
