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 TestEgg 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.
