When I was buying supermarket eggs, I typically just got the cheapest ones. "Vegetarian-fed" eggs have zero appeal to me as I'm a big meat eater anyhow. The omega-3 fortified eggs had no appeal either, especially as I eat a tin of sardines or oysters just about every day so my omega-3 needs are satisfied in a natural way.

The eggs I've been getting directly from local farms are pretty incredible however, which was the point of this post. You can definitely tell the difference in the taste and there is a much richer nutritional profile. Probably because the small farm chickens run around the yard all day eating bugs and whatever else they can find including their own feces. That doesn't bother me.

Exactly. Even though soy/corn free local farm eggs can go for $7/dozen in this state, I’ve justified the almost $5/dozen expense for the same reasons, health being top...but just one of many.
