Most people seem to believe that brown eggs are the best ones to buy. There is a belief that they are better for you than white eggs. I have, however, learned that white eggs have the same nutritional value as brown ones. The only difference lies in the size of the egg; the white ones are usually smaller than the brown ones. The reason for this is that they usually come from the white-feathered fowls who are smaller than their brown dark-feathered counterparts. The larger brown dark-feathered birds lay the bigger eggs - the brown eggs. This is also the reason why the brown eggs are usually more expensive to buy than the white ones.
I was also of the opinion that the white eggs were more fragile and would break easily, while the brown eggs had a harder shell. Apparently, this is not the case.
I have eaten both brown and white eggs, but the brown ones are what I always buy these days. I don't think there is any difference in taste between the two though. Maybe I will start buying the white ones again sometimes, since they do sell at a more affordable price. Which ones do you usually buy and why?
