Egg Score Card:  If you’re new to the Egg Score Card by Cornucopia Institute, you can search your neighborhood “organic” “grass fed” “pastures” eggs and see if they’re 1 🥚 or 5 🥚 🥚 🥚 🥚 🥚

This will also let you understand what parameters to ask about when you yourself are at the farmers market (e.g. Indoor Space Per Bird, Outdoor Space Per Bird, Organic Commitment, Ownership Structure – Corporate vs Family, Supplemental Feed, etc – super interesting!)

And share!:

It’s worth noting that specialty stores charge $7 a dozen for Organic Eggs that are a 1 🥚  rating. You can’t know which is truly organic or which is fake, until….. The Cornucopia Institute, a nonprofit agricultural watchdog group that reveals industrial practices within the elastic organic standards, began rating eggs over five years ago. You can go through the list and see that Wholefoods 365 Brand is a 1 🥚, Pete and Gerry’s $7 dozen is a 3 🥚 🥚 🥚  , and your neighborhood farmers market $6 dozen  is a 5 🥚 🥚 🥚 🥚 🥚 Eggs, poultry, dairy, grain products and more were turned into Score Cards on their website: cornucopia.org.
