Hey,

What's the difference between White Eggs and Brown Eggs?

Is one more healthy than the other?

Thanks,
Foodio

Q: IS THERE A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN BROWN AND WHITE SHELLED EGGS?
A: No. Shell color is determined by the breed of hen and is not related to quality, nutrients, flavor or cooking characteristics. Since brown egg layers are slightly larger birds and require more food, brown eggs are usually more expensive than white.

Dude - First of all, STOP YELLING!

Haven't you ever heard the commercial, "brown eggs are local eggs, and local eggs are fresh??"

Maybe it's a New England thing!
