Cage Free vs. Pasture Raised Eggs

What is the difference between Cage Free, Free Range, and Pasture Raised Eggs?

Without talking about the taste and health elements of these eggs, I think it’s important to know what the classifications ACTUALLY mean.

Because the names all sound pretty good, but what does it all really mean.

  1. THANK YOU. I was so confused with the American terms. If I ask questions to my uncle or parents they think I’m becoming a hippie 😂 but no I just want better eggs and better chicken comfort! I need an Amish settlement near me or I’m gonna have to do it

  2. It’d be classic if you tattoo “麻辣” on your arm like the Chinese-word tat everybody has

  3. Notice how the pastire raised egg's yolk is orange and no pale yellow? THAT'S how it should look. Growing in the eastern European countryside that's what eggs have always looked to me. The pale yellow just inspires some kind of sickness, the colour is just off man

  4. So basically it’s nonsense marketing that’s likely being taken advantage of in order to trick people into spending more money. Just like non gmo and organic

  5. The safest thing is if you want fresh egg you have to raise your own chicken hey it's also a guess unlimited eggs

  6. When the Golden Ones come to rule over us, we'll look back at how we treat animals and beg them for forgiveness.

  7. Living in the modern world means paying for your eggs’ chickens freedom to own real estate 😂

  8. I'm waiting for the day that even pasture-raised is too unethical and foraged wild eggs is the new moral buzz word

  9. Caged eggs are forbidden in my country and the organic eggs are certified so that people know the henes have had a good life

  10. In the EU, caged eggs are banned from sale to consumers. You can recognise them by a number printed on the egg: 2 is cage-free, 1 is free-range, 0 is organic. I believe the caged eggs have the number 3, but they‘re not for sale to consumers. I personally went back to free-range eggs after moving back to Central America.

  11. Cage free and free range is basically a scam, it's better to pick regular eggs or pasture raised

  12. Where I live in the UK, british stores only really sell free range. You have to go to the supermarkets and asian shops to get caged.

  13. I Always buy organic here in denmark there is a law when eggs are organic it also has to be free range

  14. While it's great to be able to buy eggs from happy chickens who get to run around, don't feel ashamed if you can't afford them. Buying ethically is ideal, but buying within your means is more important

  15. It's more important what they eat as it changes the composition of the egg. You are what you eat
