    Your fridge is an oxygen free zone and eggs need oxygen to begin germination. So if you buy them from the shelf and leave them on your shelf at home there's a good chance a chicken fetus will begin to form.

    Didn't you know that?

    It has to do with keeping them at a constant temperature. Shops tend to be temperature regulated without much fluctuation up or down. Your kitchen gets hot and cold depending on the time of day and if your cooking or not.

    Yep, eggs need to be stored at a constant temperature or else they get upset.
    The fridge is the best place for this.

    Your succinct description of hen reproduction would work well in a class room.

    Even worse is the fact that I'm sitting here reading your advice slurping tea with a hot water shoved between my legs and nodding my head in agreement. At least you're adding to the debate!

    Eggs are fine to be stored at room temp when fresh, the eggs in the supermarket are far from fresh, up to a few weeks old I've heard, so they get you to refrigerate them

    We went on holidays one year and forgot about the dozen eggs sitting in the cupboard, came home and the kitchen was full for new born chicks running around.

    That never happened

    I keep them in the fridge for handiness, but yeah, eggs don't need to be kept there, and eggs last a couple of months easy.

    Shop bought eggs are horrible, I get free range from family ^_^, yums

    Anyway the best before data on the eggs is a load of cack, to test if an egg is gone off place it in a cup of water, gone off eggs float, good ones sink.

    This also helps tell you if the egg contains a Witch or not.

    If you've ever worked in a supermarket you'd know the rotation they do, it's definitely changed daily. If you want to experiment buy some tomorrow and leave them on a shelf for a week.

    I've worked in shops before, they don't change them daily, they change them when they sell out, or go out of date.

    People do know the eggs you get are the hens period and the egg cannot be fertilized unless the hen got rode by a Rooster before the eggs are layed.

    Eggs just stay much fresher in the fridge is the only reason they say this

    This has made me laugh a lot on a Saturday morning! Poetic language!

    Eggs and ketchup both in tbe fridge obviously.

    I keep nearly everything in fridge that's on the shelf in the supermarket. All veg is on the shelf for instance and all that goes in tbe fridge once it's gets home.

    You know how hens sit on eggs to keep them warm? Why do you think they do that?

    Wait, you buy fertilised eggs? :eek:

    Eggs shouldn't be kept in the fridge, they should be at room temperature for cooking with. Even in way hotter countries than ours (France for example), eggs are never refrigerated. It's just some stupid thing people have started doing recently.

    Well, true, but as someone said earlier, refrigeration is good for someone who wants them to last a bit longer. Handy if you don't eat eggs too often. Never a problem for me personally. :cool: Room temp eggs are less likely to crack when boiling too.

    Does that mean you then have to keep that fridge inside another?

    The ones from Tesco have a notice on the box that says 'Allergy advice: contains egg'.

    How does it work when the door is open? :confused:

    There's a little switch inside the fridge that activates a vacuum pump when you close the door. It also turns the light off.
