> According to the American Egg Board, that is not true Did you actually read the whole bit there? They are talking about large commercial egg operations (which is the sort of "free range" eggs I said were merely overpriced gimmicks.) A pasture-raised chicken appears to produce better eggs according to tests referenced here: http://www.motherearthnews.com/Real-Food/2007-10-01/Tests-Reveal-Healthier-Eggs.aspx http://www.motherearthnews.com/Real-Food/2007-10-01/Tests-Re... or you could examine the facts at nutritiondata (compare http://www.nutritiondata.com/facts-C00001-01c200_S0000o180j05012G18000000060800030500040600020E0004060B07020A020403010NPastureqqdRaisedqq0Eggsqq0qq81qq0largeqq0qqjqq050gqq9.html http://www.nutritiondata.com/facts-C00001-01c200_S0000o180j0... to http://www.nutritiondata.com/facts/dairy-and-egg-products/111/2 http://www.nutritiondata.com/facts/dairy-and-egg-products/11...) There is a difference, it is quantifiable, and the claims made by the commercial egg producers is both incorrect and deceptive (big surprise there...)
