Everything You Need To Know About Eggs - Cage Free, Free Range, Pasture Raised, and More

- I am so excited to share this egg review video with you guys because there is so much mystery and incorrect information about eggs. Just because you buy organic eggs, doesn't mean anything! The truth is 90% of the organic eggs on the market are poor quality, from chicken that never go outside and eat gmo corn and soy. You need to know what the difference between eggs that cage free, free range, pasture raised, organic, non-gmo, and more. For my money, I ONLY BUY pasture raised eggs because they are outside from early morning till late evening eating bugs, worms, and soaking up the sun. The flavor and nutritional value is way better than cage free or free range. Vital farms pasture raised eggs are available nationwide, better yet is to buy locally sourced pasture eggs from a nearby farm! I hope you enjoyed this video and learned something, we want to start making more videos like this! Mad Love, Bobby...Dessi...Art...Paul XOXO

Use the cornucopia link above to see the best rated pasture eggs and where to buy them. You need to call around to stores in your area or contact those farms to ask where they sell them. Do yourself a favor and search "kirkland", "trader joes", "sprouts" and others and see how poorly they rate!
Check out the nutritional value of pasture raised eggs vs caged:
Vitamin E: USDA(caged) - 0.97mg vs. Polyface(pasture) - 7.37 mg

Beta-carotene: USDA - 10 mcg vs. Polyface - 76.2 mcg
Folate: USDA - 47 mcg vs. Polyface - 10,200 mcg
Omega-3s: USDA - 0.033 g vs. Polyface - 0.71 g.. 21 TIMES MORE
Cholesterol: USDA - 423 mg vs. Polyface - 292 mg
Saturated fat: USDA - 3.1 g vs. Polyface - 2.31 g

My favorite pasture raised eggs are Vital Farms. You need to buy the organic or non-gmo variety to avoid the chickens that are feed the supplemental feed of gmo corn & soy.
I encourage you to find local farms that sell pasture raised eggs in your area, just call around, you can often find them at farmers markets at co-op stores. In Illinois, mint creek farms sells some of the best pasture eggs and never use corn or soy feed!

Thanks for your support, Bobby! We appreciate you shining light on the egg industry.
Great Job guys!!
Best eggs I eat them every day.
Your eggs are the best. I can really taste a major difference. Your brand tends to be more expensive than others but I don't mind, it is well worth the taste and happy chickens!
I just watched this video and from now on I’ll be exclusively buying eggs from you guys!💖💖💖
I always buy your eggs
One of the saddest realizations I had was when I learned that most of what is marketed as "healthy" food is not as it appears. The devil is in the details.
Yes indeed :/
Exactly, I really makes eating a chore. I just feel bad for those who don’t know, or don’t have enough money to eat right
It sucks..Too eat healthy it's soo expensive
Absolutely. It's deceptive trade practice. Fraudulent companies with fraudulent products. Business -- the amERRORican way.
@@terrydevaney8601 You got that right.
I just happen to be buying Vital Farm eggs, before this video. Let me tell you, the color of the yolk and the hardness of the shell is what convinced me they are definitely good eggs. The taste brings me back to when I used to raise chickens myself. Very rich flavor, like an egg is suppose to taste.
Very true. My husband doesn’t taste the difference but I do.
I'm so excited that I've bought Vital Farms before, even their organic eggs! Now I know to stick with that brand. They cost about $6 a dozen but I eat eggs everyday now so it's worth it to me. Thank you!
Your ph must be terrible eggs good on occasions but it fucks with your ph
@@snowmane9090 do you know from experience? Because i eat eggs everyday and never had a problem. And I’ve never heard of anyone having problems with eating eggs.
I have eaten 2+ eggs every day of my life and have no health issues. My ph is just fine thank you.
@@cathiemcginnis3997 that doesn’t really matter, you should still be eating high quality whole foods regardless
@@NahkriinKonahriikLXXVI I eat my own chickens pastured eggs. I eat quality grassfed beef. I eat pastured butter. All very high quality. Thanks for being concerned though!
This explains why studies keep going back and forth on if eggs are good for you or not. And they need to specify what types of eggs were tested
Now this is very interesting. Weird how we don't figure out these simple things.
@@lolab6770 Yess, tell that to vegans.
nah thats cause the studies are epidemiology, useless science
I'm sure they do specify lol. Their study wouldn't be approved or taken seriously otherwise
@@Sam-ng3of you'd be surprised
I just ate my first farm fresh egg this morning thanks to a co worker who has a farm and sold me some. I’ll be buying my eggs from her going forward.
Does she ship?
You won't go back.
I was getting my eggs from a local farmer till I ask to see his feed. The chickens were eating a feed he would purchase that had soy and corn in the feed. So please be careful just because it's from a local farmer you still have to check and purchase carefully. I now purchase organic pasture raised eggs from my supermarket. I also purchase vital farms that they mention in this video.
no point eating eggs if you're not but we are all struggling if you're shopping at the grocery store
@@CoachDarren if you live near a Lidl they have USDA certified organic pasture raised eggs for $3 something. I really only go there for that and their organic spaghetti sauce.
Raise your own egg laying hens!! They are surprisingly self sufficient and the satisfaction of acquiring baby chicks, raising them to laying age and watching them thrive all while getting delicious healthy eggs to share with family is such a life improvement!
What kind of food you feed them?
@@vipjunixlazaga1558 Depending on their age. If they are Chicks you feed them Starter Feed - (very important to give them STARTER FEED)..
Then about 6 weeks till they start laying you feed them Developer feed,
then when they start laying you can feed them any number of “Layer” feed. Mine love the “Layer Crumble” feed. Crumble just means the type of consistency the food is.
Then it’s up to you what other types of goodies to give them other than a steady supply of feed. They love fruit, veggies, cooked meat , oatmeal, basically anything you have for dinner leftovers!
Not everyone has that option
@@jerbear7952 That is true
I dont agree with you on how you feed them
We had four chickens on an acreage and it worked pretty well getting eggs. They roamed the property all day and went in at night. It would be super if streets or communities worked together to manage a group of hens.
Here in Wisconsin, a local brand, OrgaNick's Pastures, is the only certified humane farmer in the state for eggs. Nick, the owner, posts videos frequently of his hens foraging in the pasture, even in winter.
Nice!
I actually live in Wisconsin and i was becoming overwhelmed with all the choices we have so thank you for this comment
That’s great to hear!!
Thank you for this information, I shop Festival Foods and they carry these eggs! Will be buying them from now on.
Wow, interesting 🤔
My chickens eat bugs, worms and even lizards.
Chickens usually aren't vegetarians
I want to have pasture raised chickens. What do you feed them?
Omg that’s a good point ☝🏼😂
Same! My chickens also ate a nest of baby mice they found.
That’s why I don’t put ‘vegetarian’ on my label. The feed I give them is organic and GMO-free but my grass and the bugs they catch aren’t. So I am careful how I label my eggs.
Oh my😱 they eat baby mice😲?
Jenny, they will eat anything. Even other chickens.
I love watching Bobbie because he is so excited about what he is doing, not to mention telling us what we need to know.
Thanks so much for sharing! I have been lucky enough to buy eggs from local farmers and let me tell you it makes a HUGE difference. Supporting these happy chickens and a local business is a must!
Best eggs I've ever had were the chickens I raised myself in my yard. Yep. The best.And that's becoming more and more an option.
you raised them in the apartment complex below me and kept me up all night
Joy Williams what breeds do you raise ? Ever had Belfelder eggs?
Thank you I needed this
you dont know how to reply?
@@danwheeler3164 hhhhhhhhhh
I switched to Vital Farms eggs last year and can definitely tell the difference. They are expensive but I don't mind paying more for better quality.
T Nick yes, Vital farms are great tasting eggs.
Vital Farms eggs taste delicious!
Much cheaper than going to the doctor, healthcare starts at the grocery store
I agree T Nick
If anyone lives near a Lidl they have USDA certified organic pasture raised range eggs for $3 something. I really only go there for that and their organic spaghetti sauce.
I greatly appreciate your content. I'm 41yrs old, always been in fitness person and eggs was always a bit a mystery to me.
Really love your channel.
Honestly I buy Vital Farms Pasture raised and I can tell the difference big big DIFFERENCE! They taste so DELICIOUS 😋 🐔🥚🍳 they truly are the best eggs in the market and they even include a small pamphlet about their eggs. I ALSO noticed the difference in color and taste! # 1 for sure!
Maybe i should buy some pasteraised eggs real soon.
Thanks for the video. As someone who moved to California from the other side of the world, picking eggs started feeling like each egg has a resume trying to impress you with all these labels. It's funny, and a headache. You're a life saver 😂
I’ve been buying simply organic eggs from Kroger for months , just for this video to burst my bubble . 😭😭😭 It’s crazy how they purposely label food to deceive you .
Vital Eggs are sold in our Kroger. They truly do raise their hens in a free range organic way AND they allow third party investigators to come to the premises to verify that.
Vital farms' eggs are not pasture raised eggs. They are fooling the market and making them believe that their eggs are pasture raised when its not. Look for john suscovich and seven sons farms videos explaining this facts.
Jason Alcaraz I’ll check it out , but I’ve bought them before and the yolks are bright orange like other pasture raised eggs I’ve tried .
@@HannahBoo yolk color is easy to manipulate. Chickens can be fed edible flowers such as marigold, mix turmeric in the feeds to produce deep golden yolks. Yes, they do this to deceive consumers.
For me, the purpose of raising chickens in pasture is to care about their welfare. To let the chicken live their normal life. Or I may say, luxurious life than most of the chickens in other farms.
As per john suscovich videos, he claims that vital farms eggs are free range eggs not pasture raised as vital farms chickens are raised in stationary barns.
Try to research also about the real difference of free range and pasture raised. Then you'll find out that uts not just about the yolk.. 😊
Jason Alcaraz I care about their welfare too . I can’t believe that they are just allowed to false advertise like that. And on top of that charge the pasture raised price too . I’ve recently started purchasing organic pasture raised happy egg because i like them better . Now I’m curious about them.
I love your videos! It is so confusing and challenging to select the healthiest items. So thrilled you do what you do.
This is very useful information. Using the link you provided, I see that I've been buying the worst eggs for years. Heading to the supermarket tomorrow to buy Vital Farms pasture raised eggs. Thanks so much for making these videos.
Love how your videos not only educate on what to avoid, but also where to find the healthy options. What to avoid isn't helpful without solutions. Thank you!
I love that you go into various grocery stores and explain regular everyday purchases we make and why some are good and some are bad. It's also funny seeing you looking around like you don't want to get caught - not sure if you are trying to avoid an employee or if customers are gawking at you but thanks for doing this! Great info!
OMW ! Ty for this cause at 58 yrs I have been wondering about this! Bless u all!
I am 40 years old and just got diagnosed with heart disease I had a stent placed in my heart. I work out regularly and yes I have diabetes but I thought I was managing it well. I have to eat the pasture raised eggs and the meats that you suggest or I could surely die sooner than later,your videos are invaluable to me
Man I've never watched so many videos by one person in such a short period of time. Nice educational videos on how our food is grown, a lot of eye opening info. I already had a nice base knowledge on beef and chicken but these videos take it even further.
And I thought I was doing something with my Egglands Best.
Caspers Best Friend same here, 🤦🏾♀️
I did too for a while..
👍🏼
Caspers Best Friend me too
Me too lol!
I love this video Bobby! Thank you so much. I sure as heck have been wondering what’s up with all these different kinds of eggs. And now I’m going to find a place local to me where I can get some pasture raised eggs.
One day I decided to go for the pasture raised egg because I was in a hurry at the grocery store now I’m watching this video wondering why it tasted so GOOD!
Just found you! I've been buying Vital Farm eggs for quite a while. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE them. I am 71years young and they taste like the ones from the farm I grew up on. Also eat the sprouted bread! Thank you for all the GREAT advice.
How young are you!
I ❤️ Eggs! Truth be told, I eat one most days. Since discovering your channel, I’ve only bought Vital Farms and I can’t thank you enough. Just 6 months ago, I believed cage-free was “so friendly”, now I know better thanks to your education. I’m slowly changing things in my diet and I’m excited for this new journey of eating!!! Thank you! 😘
I Love Vital Eggs. I’m a Texan living in Summerfield Fl. I tell everyone how rich and good Vital eggs. I’m so glad I watched your video. I will try eggs from our local farmers market. Thank you for your research and information it is very informative
Thank you Bobby! You have changed the way I make several types of purchases, including Olive Oil and now Eggs. Very valuable information and appreciate your efforts for providing options for more healthy choices, and understanding what to choose as well. Much appreciated!
There should be a law in them tricking us in their deceiving advertisements. All making money is the end goal, sod the health.
Eggs are not labeled as healthy food. What you don’t see is important. The egg lobby is very strong and will outlive everyone
I know. I noticed Walmart's signs not long ago near the chicken and was like WOW this is outright lies! There should be plenty more laws around how our food is produced and sold, but people are so broke they think their family will starve if they don't get food for nothing
I'm ok with them saying all this....just say "sponsored by"...
Best thing to do is raise your own chickens. I have 5 and I average 4 eggs a day..
Legal bribery.
Best video of 2019!! I’ve recently become very particular about the eggs that i buy but didn’t know what all those terms meant. Thank you so much
Thanks for this video! We've thought we bought the best organic eggs. But after I watched your videos, I learned so much. We really appreciate and God Bless!
Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful
Bobby + friends, you are a gift of love to us all 💯❤
Hey Bobby & Paul... Wow guys... your research is not in vain... Really appreciate you both : )
I love what you are doing here! Hold these factories liable with facts and in the pocket book!
Thank you so much
My husband used to get sick from eating regular eggs so i saw this video got the pasture raised at staters for 5$ and no issues eggs he can eat without problems highly recommend for people with sensitive stomachs or digestive issues
You're THE go-to shopping guy that guides with gold advice on all-things food for wholesome eating and smart consuming. Brilliant! Thank you! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Great informative video which doesn't go side track. Short and sweet. Thank you Bobby 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
you got it bud!
OMG- I can't believe how long I've been fooled for! Thank you for this information, I really needed it.
My nutrition is base on eggs, so I really appreciate this info. Thanks, guys.
Bro. Your videos have changed my life. Please keep them coming. Especially the haul series and the ways to cook meat series. I also just started Keto. Love your work.
Great education!!!! We are very lucky to be great friends with an amazing farmer where we get our eggs weekly. It takes the guesswork out. Thanks for sharing 💜💙💜
Thank you!!!! I have pasture raise eggs my self my chicken are running around eating what they would like they are happy chickens
, your honestly saving lives .. thank you bobby again with another great informational video !
I didn’t know any of this information I’m in shock. This is so informative for me. I only knew to look at the date and keep them in the fridge. Thank you.
I loved when you said “it just looks much happier egg!” You summed the feeling up! 😂😂😂
It’s so deceiving, those terms. Thank you for your great help.
so tricky!!!
Pasture eggs aren't just a dollar more, they're double or triple the price of free range organic eggs.
True
I have tried them before and yes they are good. But I have been buying Pete and Gerry organic eggs much cheaper and they are good..
Yep, but 0.55 cents an egg is well worth it to me.
You get what you pay for.
5$ at qfc
Your videos literally makes me wanna go healthy eating all the way. Thanks!👍
I am loving this series! Thank you for this!
I tried the pasture raised eggs and we liked them and they don't bother our stomachs. Thank you for all the good information
Bravo! That was awesome info! You really do your homework! I always bought the cheapest eggs...Now, I know better- thanks & keep on doing what You Do!
thank you! I always confused about eggs! you make me healthy 🥰
I 've been eating 6 Vital Farms Organic (brown carton) eggs raw every day now for past 10 months after watching this video. Thank you and great channel! just subbed!
Thank you so much for this info.. this helped me out so much.. God bless you guys
our pleasure!
This quarantine has made me a TH-cam fanatic your channel is the first one with content which we all should be aware of. Thanks.
Excellent information. Thank you guys, God bless you !!!
As a Diabetic I appreciate all this Great Information! Keep up the great work!
Thanks so much for teaching us all of this! This information is so helpful ❤️
Unfortunately most people with large families cannot afford to spend $5 to $6 for a dozen eggs.
1122 Boogie Boogie Ave same. Even a family of two (me and my husband), it can get so flappin expensive with the amount of eggs we eat 😅
Yet most people can spend $5 on a skinny latte without thinking twice. Thanks to inflation, $5,has little to no value these days. $50 is the new $2.5
Just buy from people out in the country. Usually 2 or $3 a dozen.
Yeah 50 cents an egg is insane right but they can go out and spend 50 bucks on brunch no problem.
Try sams
This video was awesome explaining all of the terminology the big egg companies use. I jumped in head first 3 yrs ago @ 62, raising my own flock for eggs, there is just no comparison with our eggs that come from happy, healthy chickens 😊. Next, I'll try meat/dual purpose breeds for our own meat.
Thank you for teaching us and doing all the research for use, We really appreciated
I've contemplating on buying the vital farms brand for the quality and the packaging is pretty. Sad I know lol but glad to hear they are a top contender.
Very educational! Thank you! Big fan of the channel. 😊
Wow!!! This information is truly priceless!!! Every human being should see this
Thank you! We are blessed to have a couple farms near us that sell chicken eggs, we can see the chickens outside running around. They run 2. to 3. a dozen. Which beats the store eggs.
Yesssssssss Bobbie! Your are the Spider-Man of Keto done Right! Best ingredient finder... Love You & Destiny.
Great information - I honestly never knew any of this. Thanks for the video!
Thank you for spreading light on the eggs.
Thanks Bobby you have opened my eyes
This is something that should be taught in school. You should be a a teacher! Thanks for all the great Survivalist information.
Agree! I get my eggs from the local farmers who have a name for their hens coz for them they are family. The eggs are so different in taste as well as size, much smaller than the free range eggs in stores but so much tastier n healthy
You are definitely right about the shell I buy organic eggs from the farm The chickens actually run around outside all day so the shell crack very easy in the yolk is rich orange Amazing video thank you
Great video for everyone that needs to be informed. To be honest, supporting your local farmer who has pastured hens/free range eggs would be even better than any of the store bought eggs and what is even better is asking to crack an egg...Look for a dark orange yolk. It's rich in xanthophyll and caraotenoids, Omega 3s ect ect.
Wow so wonderful! Thank you for this information Bobby
our pleasure ang!
I know you're coming from a health standpoint, but I am so glad that you promote foods that also are better for the lives of the animals. Good work!
that always matters!@
It's important to remember that only females lay eggs. the male chickens are disposed of right at birth. To do this they usually use a commercial mascerator, or a gas chamber.
So helpful! Thank you for making this video.❤️
Pasture raised vs heritage breed. I picked up some heritage eggs at Aldi for a FANTASTIC price. Supposedly they are pasture raised. Organic. And heritage. I got them home and the yolks were almost purple they were so dark!! I went back and bought 10 dozen. They are fantastic.
Thank you! I always thought getting cage free etc was enough I’m definitely changing this
👍🏼
Finally a video that explains the great egg dilemma! Thanks for the Cornucopia link also. I found 5 STAR (EGG) rated eggs near me in Wisconsin! Yippee!!!!
So very informative! Thank you! Just found your videos! Keto 3 yrs now.
Thank you for the education! I just started with the pasture eggs.
WoW..Thanks! Never Seen Pasture Raised Eggs! A Great TH-camr recommended You!
Good breakdown, My Husband was just teaching me about the "free range" tiny window box sham ✔
Thanks Man✊
Some local farmers feed their chickens food that contains antibiotics, so make sure you ask the farmer. Ty for this video. Very informative.
Super informative video. Much clarity provided on a very complicated & confusing topic. Thank U!
Another fabulous, informative video! Thank you ❤
Wow great info., guys! 👍🏼
My Trader Joe's just started selling Carol's Pasture Raised eggs, $3.99/dozen. Thanks for all the info.
Jay I buy Carol at Fresh food market , but is not so close to me.
the whole foods 365 brand now has pasture eggs as well- i believe it’s the same price
Thats great cuz the vital farms at my Walmart are $5
😲
This is a very good price ….in area where I live those eggs are between $5 and six dollars
What a great, informational video! Thank you for doing this.
My concern when egg producers started introducing free range eggs that it would just be the beginning. The opening of the hen house so to speak. And sure enough I was right. It is my understanding that chickens are now demanding weekends and holidays off and hazard pay for Jumbo size eggs.
Lol. My hens that lay those jumbo double yolk eggs deserve hazard pay & the wknd off.😄
This really made me chuckle 😂😂
I don’t understand how commercial “farmers” sleep at night-treating animals so crummy. Awful.

Uh the same way every other awful person (which is a lot) in the world sleeps.. with two eyes closed and a comfy blanket, lol

Just to stay one step ahead of the game, I can imagine eggs getting orange dye soon. 😥
I've heard some people put tumeric in the feed to ensure an orange yolk, smh
@@colejstyles aw crap... See, that's what I mean
Umm there's fake eggs circulating.
They have been doing it for a while. Bobbie missed it. They add specific things to feed to make yolk darker yellow.
Thank you thank you thank you! Thanks for explaining all the information about each method of growing eggs. I shall be getting pasture raised eggs from now on from Vital Farms.
Love the video. Not a lot of production fanciness and extra nonsense, just next to the eggs in the grocery store and giving the information. Thank you!
Just went to Target and bought the eggs you recommended.
Thank you so so much for this information found That Alberson carries them locally for me will buy some. thank you for all you do take care always.
This is super valuable information! I always thought free range and pasture raised were the same thing! Those marketing schemes are so deceiving.
Great info. Thank you. Ill be alert when shopping for eggs.
