Great Value Cage Free Large Brown Eggs, 12 Count

The Great Value cage free eggs are my first experience with buying brown eggs, and boy are they good. Up until recently I never put much thought into buying eggs -- I just stuck with the cheap, white eggs. A few months ago I noticed these for sale as part of the revamped Great Value lineup. The cost is slightly higher than your basic white egg but is definitely a good value compared to some of the name brand brown variety. Most cheap eggs these days are watery and have little flavor. Very often I would find myself throwing out some of the whites when scrambling them. Not so with these eggs. Very full of flavor with a good texture. You will definitely see a noticeable difference in the consistency and color when cooking them. The Great Value cage free variety are also available as certified organic, although they do cost about a dollar more per dozen. Be careful to pick the right one when shopping, as the packaging between the two is almost identical. The pictured packaging is the non-organic variety. Bottom line: If you like your eggs scrambled, definitely buy this product -- you will be happy you did. If you are looking for more flavor in your eggs, buy this product.

I grew up in the country,raised on "real" brown farm eggs fresh from the chickens. That is what I was expecting,but these eggs were quite different. The color of the shell actually looked liked they were dyed brown. Also,when you scrambled them they weren't a rich dark yellow like the "real" brown eggs I grew up on...nor did they taste like them. Honestly,they tasted like a fake egg. My conclusion is,I guess I'm just gonna have to buy me some chickens to get the kind of country farm brown eggs I was raised up on.

A family member purchased these eggs. When I opened them they appeared fine, aside from the continual breaking yolks upon cracking the eggs and red specks in the yolk. The yolks were also much lighter in color than the other brand I use. My normal brand does not have this problem and the yoke remains unbroken. When I neared the end of the carton and retrieved two eggs I was shocked to find that one of theses "brown" eggs had two bands of lighter color around them...as if something was impeding the application of color to the entire egg. I found another egg in this carton with one band similar to the one with two....it was in the same spot as the top band of the double banded egg. This does not appear to be normal to me. Also the fact that the yolks are fragile suggest they are not as fresh as they should be. This color banding does seem very odd. Too bad walmart does not allow photos to be posted with reviews.
