How to understand an egg carton

It’s a simple carrier with 12 egg-shaped slots. Yet over the years in the hands of marketing experts, the egg carton has gotten confusing. That’s why we’re here to help you learn what you need to know and what you can ignore.

farm fresh

This is a marketing term that sounds good, but means nothing. If the hen lived on a commercial farm (like all hens) it can be considered “farm fresh”

grades

Grade AA: The thickest and firmest egg whites. This is the best you can get.
Grade A: This grade is given to eggs that have very good egg whites.
Grade B: These egg whites may be thinner, but they’re just fine for baking and cooking.

pet recycled

A method of recycling that involves plastic from water and soda bottles to create a “bottle grade” flake that exceeds the FDA requirements for direct food contact.

hormone-free

Another marketing gimmick. All egg-laying hens are no longer given hormones.

antibiotic free

Eggs are already antibiotic free because the egg industry doesn’t use antibiotics. Though antibiotics may be used for hen health, there is an extremely low probability that the antibiotics will be present in the eggs.

certified humane

This label means the eggs came from facilities that meet the standards for farm animal treatment. The label is given by The Humane Farm Animal Care Organization.

cage-free certified

Hens are cage-free certified if they can freely roam around buildings, rooms and open areas that have nest space and perches.

USDA Organic

This is the proof you need that something organic is, you know, actually organic. The U.S. Department of Agriculture ensures that eggs labeled as “organic” are correctly sourced, safe to eat and come from chickens that only eat organic feed.

So, which retailers are actually good?

Good retailers care about where their eggs are sourced. They pay special attention to hen treatment, diet and living conditions.
