New Zealander reporting in: only the weird people put egg cartons in the fridge. We buy our eggs off a shelf at the supermarket (not refrigerated) and the carton gets thrown in the pantry or left on the bench at home. No issues with egg longevity. Only rotten eggs we’ve found were in the garden from our chickens — could’ve been there for many many months. That’s a smell you never forget.
