I’ve just noticed the top shelf in my fridge has an egg holder thing, but I’ve never put eggs in the fridge and I don’t think it actually makes them last any longer? :suspect:

Yeh. But only to keep the kitchen tidy looking, not because I actually care where they’re stored.

No...I have an egg basket. They are not sold from a refrigerated area so its obviously not important that that is how they should be stored.

You are not meant to put British eggs in the fridge, it weakens them and makes Salmonella more likely

You are not meant to put British eggs in the fridge, it weakens them and makes Salmonella more likelyScientists did a study to find out the difference between eggs stored inside and outside the fridge, they concluded there was no difference

Pro: Refrigeration can double an egg’s shelf life

Storing your eggs in the fridge is the best way to keep bacteria under control.

As an added bonus, it also keeps eggs fresher for much longer than storing them at room temperature.

While a fresh egg stored at room temperature will start to decline in quality after a few days and need to be used within 1–3 weeks, eggs kept in the refrigerator will maintain quality and freshness for at least twice as long (15Trusted Source, 16Trusted Source, 17Trusted Source).

Con: Eggs can absorb flavors in the fridge

Eggs can absorb odors and flavors from other foods in your fridge, such as freshly cut onions.

However, storing eggs in their carton and sealing foods with strong odors in airtight containers can prevent this occurrence.

Con: Eggs shouldn’t be stored in the fridge door

Many people keep their eggs in their fridge door.

However, this can subject them to fluctuations in temperature every time you open your fridge, which could encourage bacterial growth and impair the eggs’ protective membranes (4Trusted Source).

Therefore, keeping eggs on a shelf near the back of your refrigerator is best.

fridge of course. However, a top tip if you are boiling an egg is to leave it out for a few mins before boiling and this stops the shell from cracking

No, they ain't in a refrigerator in the shop/ store so they don't go in one in the house.

Would never use one past the date on the box though.
Actually they never get anywhere near to those dates anyway.

Must admit, I like the idea of an egg basket however like what Cherie mentioned.

Even better, pop it in the pan and pour warm water on them out of the tap before putting them in boiling water. Stops the shock.

Always in fridge on a shelf , but i do keep the fox box out so they're not freezing cold for them , every night she gets her egg and sometimes i spoil her with 2 .

My litle electric egg boiler is one of the best things ever ,so simple and perfect eggs every time.
