I actually never thought an Organic egg was more nutritional than other eggs but it was about the way the chickens were living in the farm. I'm happy to pay if I know the chickens are happy and not suffering.

Exactly. And taste is a factor too. The pricier eggs have a perky raised darker colored yolk and taste like an egg should. Most of the run-of-the-mill eggs have a flat pale yolk and are almost completely flavorless

We have five chickens. They only get organic vegetables, however, they eat as a protein during the winter, dried mealworms with black fly larvae . The difference in flavor from our eggs and their robust eggshells versus caged mass production eggs are profound. Undeniably more flavor. Our chickens have it pretty good. And they are really funny. Happy chickens are just a treat to care for.

Jon Bradley l can confirm what you're saying is 100% true. We mainly buy budget eggs, however, we always buy the very expensive eggs when they're reaching the BB date and our supermarket then massively reduces their price. The difference in flavour and the hardness of shells is night and day compared to the budget eggs.

I lived near a battery style operation (conventional). The smell coming from that operation was horrible and sometimes unbearable in the summertime. I was raised on a farm and I was use to normal farm smells. I can only imagine how those poor hens suffered as birds are exponentially more sensitive to air pollutants than we are. So glad I have always been able to purchase eggs off of family members when I couldn't keep hens myself.

Pasture-raised and free range are different. Testing eggs from warmer months where pasture-raised chickens have a chance to spend more time outdoors and forage for food could also make a difference in nutritional value. There is still a huge difference in taste and in the color of the yolks from the eggs I buy from local farmers compared to the more expensive free range, organic eggs from the stores.

Haha, my family has a small hobby farm, and our chickens hate going outside in the winter. They go out for a few minutes before running back into the barn for warmth. But in the spring and summer, you have to chase them inside while the sun is setting. They would stay outside all night if they could, but it is too unsafe with the number of predators in the area. There is a big difference in taste with the eggs, and I really notice when I get eggs at restaurants. Also, small farmers that sell eggs can have different coloured eggs or sizes. We have hens that lay blue, green, and dark chocolate brown eggs. They look great for Easter, and kids love seeing the different coloured eggs in the cartons.

What about "pasture-raised" chicken eggs? My understanding is that the chickens spend much of their time outdoors on pasture land and get to eat insects, worms, grass, and a variety of plants. And, these chicken are bedded down in coops during the evenings and let loose during the days (unless the weather is cold or rainy).

Exactly, the only reason I buy free-run eggs is because I care about animal welfare. (And I will buy the brand in a recycled paper carton, not a plastic case, regardless of price or extra added omega-3s, etc because I care about the environment). However, I have to admit that the orange yolks are off-putting and therefore I don't eat eggs very often. It seems almost as unnatural as keeping the hens in cage We used to have chickens on my parent's farm, they lived a good life and their eggs had normal yellow yolks and they were delicious; I wish I could find eggs like this.

The coulor of an egg shell just depends on the breed of the chicken. The coulor of an egg yolk depends on what a chicken eats. For example. if you want chickens to lay eggs that have orange-coloured yolks, all you have to do is feed them food formulated for rabbits (rabbit pellets} which is a little different than ordinary chicken feed.

Market Place/Researchers, you've missed a whole aspect of data when comparing these eggs. So 'nutritional content' vs retail price, yes. But what about any possible pollution/pesticides/chemicals, etc. in the eggs? Because when it comes to 'organic' vs 'inorganic' it is the chemical pollution vs chemical/pesticide free that is also worthwhile for people to know. It's pretty disheartening to see that even nutritionists are still not sensitized to this aspect of "Health and Nutrition".

Worst pollution is obvious when you stop and think about it for a minute. The larger, further away, organic egg producer is the largest polluter of the bunch. Pesticides-what about them? Organic vs. non-organic pesticides? Pesticides go through rigorous testing before being approved. So even if the eggs are treated with organic or non-organic pesticides the result is the same-people get eggs without bugs and mice eating them. Additionally, eggs have shells, if they're sprayed with a pesticide it's not inside the eggs, it's on the shell. Simple solutions: wash your eggs before you cook them, wash your hands before and after cooking them, before you eat and oh yeah-don't eat the egg shells. As for chemicals. What chemicals? Everything on the planet is made of chemicals. Chickens are made of chemicals. Eggs are made of chemicals. You are made of chemicals. What exact chemicals are you worried about? There is no such thing as chemical-free anything.

For the correct comparison, 1) Those eggs should all be laid the same day. Because eggs start getting older and losing their nutritional value the moment they are laid. 2) Those eggs should all have the same temperature history. For example, they all should be refrigerated right after they are collected and afterwards. Nutritional value decreases more rapidly at higher temperatures. Therefore, their tests have no validity. As a food scientist myself, I would expect organic eggs are better nutritionally. I buy organic whenever I can.

You can taste good nutrition, like they say. The best eggs I have ever tasted were when I was managing a 40 bird flock, which included at least 3 roosters (who do help the hens with foraging!) I learned to sprout the whole grains and seeds rather than mill them. BUT I fully believe that big producer eggs don't vary all that much. "Free Range" covers a rather "large range" of possible conditions, and the birds can provide many services other than just eggs, like reducing codling moth in an orchard. Once you've watched a hen teach her chicks to forage and learn some of chicken calls ("language") you'll never think of chickens the same.

This video is suspiciously devoid of objectivity... almost as if a) CBC doesn't want to get sued by the egg industry b) this video is a glorified egg advert. Evidence: 1) when discussing the nutritious health of the egg, the narrator glosses over THE major concern over eggs... cholesterol. She says in the video 7:55 "if you are concerned about cholesterol talk to your doctor". 2) when comparing the eggs from the supermarket the presenter outlines the exact amount of vitamins and minerals between the brands, but when it comes to the Beth's farm, they keep it super vague 12:50 and say her eggs have more vitamins D, more vitamin E and slightly more protein. If you have the exact amounts why not show them? I suspect that the amounts are negligible. In regards to Beth's parting words 13:17, what chickens need is not to be used as biological machines popping out eggs for human consumption. She says they should run happy and free... yet no rational person would look at the lives of her chickens and consider them happy or free. Sure her operation is an improvement over factory farming operations, but neither is necessary for human health or enjoyment.

The small farm eggs were handpicked 1:50 (not a random sample) which might have made the results biased.

Missing from this study is the pasture raised ones. I'm sad, I'm pretty sure they would surpass even those from the small farm featured here.

I trust my taste buds. If they taste good, they're worth the extra cost. Nutrition is only a bonus.

My wife buys organic eggs as her friend buys them too, it's not a question about nutrients but about not feeling poor.

Very interesting Thanks. But we have noticed that Organic eggs even from big farms have a much harder shell, also the yellow is yellower (if that makes sense) than the cheap eggs. They also taste a bit stronger.. So to me it was because organic eggs were "better".. so these tests came in as a surprise. We use 4 dozens/week. We need to find our local "Beth Simpson" here in NC.
Are Expensive Eggs actually worth it?
