>try fresh, locally raised eggs
>they taste worse than the cheapest ones from the grocery store

Have I been memed?
>>

An egg is a hen's period.
You're eating refuse.
Buying locally raised/pasture raised/organic eggs is like buying "Artisanal" cow dung to plant your garden plants in.
>>
>>22050589
What made it taste worse?
>>
>>22050589
No you just have bad taste
>>
>>22050684
Slightly less salty, I think? I could barely tell the difference.
>>
>>22050589
Honestly the best eggs are the overpriced ones at the supermarket. The cheap ones always seem kinda messed up. Like the yolk is yellowish/sickly green colored and kind of overly runny, but whenver I get the expensive the eggs the yolks are vibrant orange and the whites seem so much better. I've never tried local ones, but I'd gladly pay the upcharge for the supreme yolks. Orange yolk eggs are amazing.

>>22050684
I used a flattened and dried cow patty as bread for my fried egg. Never again!
>>
>>22050589
>locally raised eggs
???
Is that like homemade coconuts
>>
>>22050589
Eggs need to be slightly aged. For one, super fresh eggs are way harder to crack without getting shell in the egg, the membranes and stuff get more brittle the longer they sit. You don't actually want eggs the day the chicken laid them.
>>
>>22050679
you're insinuating that flavor isn't the main driver of food choice.
>>
>>22050743
>yellowish/sickly green colored
what area is this in?
>>
>>22050941
I did no such thing but ok

>>22050743
>Like the yolk is yellowish/sickly green colored
I'm glad I don't live in America.

Probably the industrial grade food the chickens eat. I don't even like the taste of organic eggs because I'm so used to the supermarket eggs. Normal free-range tasted much better
>>
>>22050954
you did because eggs are delicious.
>>
>>22050973
Whatever ends this cringe interaction, brah
>>
>>22050956
that's not a thing here.
op must live in merry ol'.

that would be you just leaving the internet, anon.

Keep replying, I'm sure you'll "win" this exchange, I'm just going to hide your posts and replies now. So, I won't see them. But if it makes you feel good, keep posting.

>>22050995
You're a cock. You should fuck off, you're a waste.
>>
>>22050589
the main factor in terms of taste is what the chickens eat, not their living conditions
>>
>>22050679
>Refuse
You are so unbelievably fucking retarded.
>>
>>22051021
Sorry you're so upset about the proper use of words.
>>
>>22050995
>I'm sure you'll "win" this exchange
why would you think it was a competition?
>>22050995
>I won't see them
are you saying that you have spyware installed for browsing 4chan?
>>
I live in a place where I can't eat locally raised eggs. PFAS
>>
>>22050589
Quality meat tastes much better than the supermarket but eggs taste the same from my experience. I've had tons of freshly laid eggs from neighbours and all they do is stick to the shell more when you try to boil/steam them.
>>
OP, have you tried to eating a farm-fresh egg next to a cheap store egg, both unseasoned ?

Regardless, other reasons they could not taste as good:
>not kept cool enough
>poor diet/health
>eggs not clean enough
>washed eggs absorbing chemicals
>>
>>22050589
really depends how the chickens are living and what they are eating. just because someone has chicken at home or on their farm etc doesn't mean they aren't eating the same shit as any factory bird or living in the same conditions (no outside foraging, fresh water and sun etc). i know of one local small-scale egg producer who keeps his chickens in absolutely disgusting conditions.
>>
>>22050743
My cheap walmart brand eggs have orange yolks.
>>
>>22051128
The local eggs come in different sizes so it's hard to made a direct comparison. I can't softboil them to the exact same degree.
>>
>>22051508
i wonder what the supply chain looks like for any one stores eggs, and what the big producers might be doing to make their eggs look better. it could be that some stores source from local suppliers producing better eggs who just want a guaranteed buyer. Or, and at this point i wouldn't be surprised, it could be that the industrial producers are adding coloring agents to the feed.

>>22050679
it is not a period. you don't even know what a period is.

A period is an unfertilized egg.

An egg that you buy at the store to boil, scramble, poach, or eat in an otherwise non-specified manner is an unfertilized egg.

Sorry you're so upset.
>>
>>22052285
Unfertilized egg is unfertilized egg, human or chicken
Period is the muscus layer of the uterus peeling off
>>
>>22052289
I'm sorry I can't continue this conversation since you can't even spell mucus properly. A woman has a period when an egg drops to be fertilized, but it isn't. She sheds the uterine lining of her uterus as well as the actual egg. A chicken's egg contains the equivalent lining within the shell. It's the same thing and you're objectively wrong. I'm going to hide your posts and replies now since you're viscerally upset and you have no idea what you're talking about.
>>
Watch out or some egg-hating autist picky eater will hide your posts!

>>22051196
Deep orange yolks are essentially all a scam these days. You supplement chicken feed with high beta carotene containing powders and it darkens the yolk.

I've gotten deep golden/orange yolks from chickens that I kept on my property that survived off 95% forage and whatever small amount of grain I may have dropped feeding my other animals.
>>
>>22050743
eggs are graded by an automatic exposure based camera system that detects egg white consistency. if you're buying grade A eggs there is no difference between brands or whether it's organic or not. Only AA grade eggs will be better. they have defined characteristics for grading.

Best tasting period i ever ate, maaan, shooooot
>>
>>22050589
What is worse in your opinion?
Sometimes they taste more wormy lol
Which i do consider worse, but i avoid buying farm fresh after extended periods of heavy rain

yeah i was thinking something like that might be the case >>22051524. as you say, the way to be sure is knowing that your own hens are out eating grass etc.
