We test the marketing on supermarket eggs, and ask companies if we can see for ourselves what the labels really mean for chickens and for you.

Say what you want about the cost differences, but how delusional do you have to be to think factory farmer chickens are "happy"
Free range organic,. I have my own hens, free ranging except night time , shut them in shed to keep them safe from foxes
Chickens are cannibalistic by their very nature. Free range or caged doesn’t matter it is their nature. They were created by God for us and other Carnivores to eat. That’s why they are at the bottom of the food chain. They are food for everybody including each other.
Probably i think a better test is a boiled egg.
That’s like Hong Kong for a chicken.
Marty cares about the welfare, giving hens what all hens should enjoy, love his passion
Cages are not necessary.
Good Job Dan! We need eggs.
God bless Marty, what a sweetheart.
Next time have the chef fry up some chickens and compair farmed raised to factory raised,also check newtresion,and see how much antibiotics needed to keep them alive in the factories.
Treating animals well helps them be healthier ,which means you eat a healthy food😎
The FDA has banned the egg industry from using the terms 'nutritious' and 'safe' in all their advertising. Eggs are neither nutritious or safe.
Organic pasteurized eggs are it.
I stumbled upon this but I’m glad I’m watching this
Switch to 'Just Egg' they never use chickens in production, and they are incredible Very Good.
I thought it was chef Morimoto 😎🎱🎲
I’ll only ever buy organic eggs. So lucky to live near so many average properties, I get 1 dozen every week from a neighbor who has 20 hens for only $6 AUD. Completely different taste, and the yolk’s are much darker
I pay a premium for better eggs, free range tastes better. But I don't care about the well being of the birds, they are a product. If you are really worried about well being of an animal, you won't eat them.
All chickens and eggs are organic, cheap eggs or expensive eggs it doesn't matter if the chickens in a cage or running Free unless the chicken was cloned, otherwise it's organic … And organic don't necessarily have to be written on the carton in order for the egg to be organic… But I would never pay $7 for a dozen of eggs I can buy four dozens of eggs for that price… But I can't taste the difference between a store-bought egg from a fresh egg straight from the chicken…. But they all serve the same purpose.
Can someone help me, I have a project. What is one event, person or legislation that brought about significant change to Canada after 1945? So, for example not the First or Second World War.
I remember going to a laying farm. The stench was horrible! Then I heard that when a chicken is too old to lay eggs, Cambells buys them. That was a long time ago. Hopefully they have changed with the times.
Maybe a balance….organic for eating egg dishes and other for baking and cooking.
organic meadows (Marty) chickens looked the best on the farm. nice neat feathers.
the previous ones were bald, matted and gross. I'm still shocked she didn't mention that.
I love Marty. I almost cried with him. I'll buy his eggs from now on.
And I LOVE Marketplace!
love the organic farmer lol
I’m the only one in my house that eats eggs so I buy free range. I want those orange yolks.
Well mabe some people dont have the money to buy organic but should we take healt desision base on economy or system economy should take desision in regard of global helth? I mean GMO and monoculture wasent good for the earth and our helth but corporate still favor them for profit over long term effect… Democracy should represent folk interest not politics and corporate one over them and now days we see Elon Musk space-x finance ( 100 billion project👏) but some people still starving / money and giant interest over folk well being👍 shame on them!
You people are frickin' USELESS.
OMG……the things liberal leftists worry about….geez.
Get a real life. I raised 10 baby chicks, every year…..from home to hen house to butcher. They do NOT lay eggs if they are stressed or unhappy. What is wrong with you fools?
I've seen big chicken farms and worked in them, some of the most disgusting places I've ever seen and instantly caused me to tear up seeing the conditions they live in
