Wondering whether you should keep your eggs in the fridge or store them at room temperature? In this post, we’ll crack open the truth about egg storage and how it affects freshness, safety, and cooking. Read on for Pip’s expert tips to help you make the best choice for your eggs!

Best Before dates on eggs can be confusing, but Pip is here to clear it up. Under MPI regulations in New Zealand, eggs get a 35-day Best Before date starting the day they’re laid. So, eggs in the supermarket with two weeks left before their Best Before date are already 21 days old. When you buy from us, you're getting super fresh eggs, often delivered the same day they're laid!

Ever wondered if you should be washing your eggs? Spoiler alert: the answer is no! There’s a good reason behind it, thanks to some clever work by Mother Nature. Eggs are laid with a protective layer called the "bloom" that keeps them fresh and safe from bacteria. Let me walk you through why keeping that bloom intact is so important and how it affects your egg’s freshness.
