    Question for everyone - eggs in or out of the fridge?

    I used to keep mine chilled until I started buying the big value boxes (we go thru at least 15 a week) and I can't say I've noticed them going off quicker on the shelf.

    Out.

    I get mine from my egg man in work, but I always store food as sold.

    I used to work for a supermarket in uni, and was told if you refrigerate them then you need to treat them as raw meat and never have them out of the cold for more than 20 minutes.
    That sounds like a classic case of premature extrapolation.

    I keep mine out of the fridge. Goodness, there wouldn't be room :eek: They come from our own hens (we have 2 :)). I write the dates they were laid on them and ensure the older ones get used first.
