When It Comes To Eggs, Size Really DOES Matter

Plus more crazy egg facts you should know.

Most of us reach into the refrigerated egg section and just grab something. Sure, some of us pick according to price, and some according to “organic” labels, but for many it usually feels like a grab bag. How many of us know what we’re getting when we opt for jumbo over large, or brown over white?

Considering that the U.S. alone consumes over 76.5 billion eggs a year, it’s time we knew all there was to know about eggs. Lucky for you, there’s an easy-to-read infographic (created by eReplacement Parts) to help you do just that. Learn the actual weight difference in hen egg sizes by the dozen, find out how eggs are graded, and broaden your horizons beyond the hen egg.
