You should have seen the look on their faces when I said I had never eaten an egg NOT bought at a supermarket. From their reaction you would of thought that I asked for a peanut butter and testicle sandwich....priceless.
I have been doing some reading about the difference in nutritional content between store bought eggs and eggs from pastured layers. My findings have been pretty intuitive. The pastured chickens are at an advantage diet wise and health wise due to the fact that they are free to roam and have a wider variety of edibles to choose from, such as worms, bugs, wild veggies and whatever else they encounter walking about unlike their caged counterparts who are fed only what the farmer gives them. Check out the pic below. I took a store bought egg and one of Joel's and cracked them side by side in a pan. Notice the yolk on the left is darker? That is Joel's egg.
