Why so Many Kinds of Eggs in Stores, and How are they Different?

In an effort to meet consumer demand, egg producers have begun marketing vegetarian, organic, cage-free, free-range, fertile, in-shell pasteurized, and nutrient-enhanced specialty eggs. These eggs offer alternative choices to consumers with special needs and preferences. Due to higher production costs, specialty eggs are usually more expensive than generic shell eggs.

Ordinary White

Egg white consists primarily of about 90% water into which is dissolved 10% proteins (including albumins, mucoproteins, and globulins). Unlike the yolk, which is high in lipids (fats), egg white contains almost no fat, and the carbohydrate content is less than 1%. Egg white has many uses in food, and many others, including the preparation of vaccines such as those for influenza.

Nutritionally Enhanced Eggs (Example: Omega-3 Brown Eggs)

By including flax, marine algae, or fish oils in
the feed, omega-3 fatty acid content in egg
yolks can be dramatically increased. These
omega-3 fatty acid enriched eggs are a good
choice for people who want to increase their
intake of omega-3 fatty acids, but do not
regularly eat fish. The demand for omega-3
eggs is increasing as we learn more about the
health benefits associated with this fatty acid.
Higher vitamin E content is an additional
benefit of omega-3 enriched eggs.

Cage Eggs

are a housing system used for various animal production methods, but primarily for egg-laying hens. The name arises from the arrangement of rows and columns of identical cages connected together, sharing common divider walls, as in the cells of a battery. Although the term is usually applied to poultry farming, similar cage systems are used for other animals. Battery cages have generated controversy among advocates for animal welfare, animal rights and industrial producers.

Organic Eggs (Example: Organic Cage-free Brown Eggs)

Organic eggs are produced by hens given feed grown without most conventional pesticides, fungicides, herbicides, or commercial fertilizers.

Free-range Eggs

Free-range  are eggs produced from birds that are permitted outdoors for at least part of the day. The term "free-range" may be used differently depending on the country and the relevant laws.
