    My egg packages here in Sweden have that information printed on them.

    But the version where the egg floats they don’t say to toss it out, but rather crack it open, look, smell. Might still be good.

      Exactly, the egg floating doesn’t mean that it’s not edible anymore, just that it’s old.

      Exactly. If an egg has gone bad, you can’t really miss it.

      Also why it’s good to always quickly check eggs before adding them to a mix.

        Assuming you have a sense of smell. Anosmia affects about 3% of people - probably more since Covid.

          The colour is typically also a dead giveaway.

          Of course blind people with anosmia are on their own there.

            Must be tough to be a blind person with ansomia and a craving for omelettes.

              I felt like cracking a joke but it would stink

        I made the mistake of not checking once, as I was cracking eggs into a running mixer. It was awful, I’ll never forget again.
