Knowledge is Power... DId you know?

The terms "free-range," "vegetarian-fed" and "organic" are all on egg cartons these days.

While free-range does mean the chicken is not caged, it does not necessarily mean that the chicken roams outdoors (it only has access to open space at some point each day).

A chicken's feed is what affects the nutritional quality of its eggs.

The label "vegetarian-fed" ensure no animal by-products are fed to the chickens laying the eggs, and "organic" means the chicken's feed is organic.
