Eggs are a healthy and affordable product that can be found in every refrigerator.

The variety of product types can be overwhelming for anyone.

Culinary expert of TUT NOVOSTI, chef and fourth-class baker Yulia Arkhipova will tell you what the difference is between the products that we can find on the shelves.

What is the difference between white eggs and brown eggs

In fact, it's all quite simple. The color of the eggs directly depends on the hen that laid it.

That is, white chickens with light combs lay white eggs, and brown eggs, in turn, are obtained from birds with dark plumage.

At the same time, both types of eggs do not differ in anything except the color of the shell. The quality of the product is affected only by the care of the bird and its nutrition.

You may have noticed that brown eggs are often more expensive than white eggs. And there is a reason for that too.

Brown eggs are more expensive because dark birds are often larger than their white sisters, and therefore produce larger eggs.
