    Foodsave tip

    Eggs can easily be kept 1 week beyond the "Best by" date if they are stored in the fridge (a constant temperature is important). Use the egg test in the video below to find out whether an egg is still good for consumption.

    Watch the Egg Test
    Egg colour

    The colour of an egg is determined by the chicken's genetic background. The colour of a hen's earlobes (not the colour of the feathers) give an indication of the colour of the hen's eggs. Both white and brown eggs have identical taste and nutritional values.

    Foodwaste tip

    Mould on a chese does not always mean that the (whole) cheese needs to be thrown away. The Swiss association foodwaste.ch explains in this helpful video which types of mould there are and in which cases mouldy cheese is edible.
