Has anyone found that the price of eggs bought in supermarkets and markets is different, especially in large supermarkets, there are all kinds of eggs in the egg area, regardless of the price, all under the banner of local eggs.
The price of different eggs varies greatly, from cheap eggs in 5 yuan to 12 yuan, and even more expensive eggs. Excluding deceptive nominal prices, cheap eggs are generally raised on a large scale in farms, and large-scale egg laying is realized through hormone stimulation, feeding and scientific management. This kind of egg is called foreign egg in rural areas. A little more expensive is farming in rural areas. There are two kinds, one is free-range ground chicken, and the other is small-scale captive feed chicken. Breeding methods are traditional, and hormones or antibiotics are rarely fed, especially free-range ground chickens, many of which are stocked all over the mountains, and chickens find their own worms to eat. Because there is no uniform feeding, the eggs produced vary in size.
The difference between earth eggs and foreign eggs: after the earth eggs are opened, the egg white is thick and the yolk is bright red, which is not easy to be pinched off. After foreign eggs are opened, the egg white is thin and the yolk is light, which is easy to yellow.
From the nutritional point of view, native eggs contain no hormones, are natural and organic, green and pollution-free, and are hygienic and nutritious. Foreign eggs are cultivated through scientific management, with large output and low price, which are not much worse than local eggs in terms of nutritional value alone.
The taste difference between native eggs and foreign eggs is very obvious. Earth eggs are rich in flavor, full in taste and more delicious to eat, but the smell of earth eggs is heavier.
Foreign eggs may be eggs produced in rapid batches, which are lighter in color, less fragrant than local eggs, less delicious and less fishy.
If it is steamed eggs or boiled eggs, earth eggs are better. However, scrambled eggs or other practices are basically indistinguishable, and relatively cheap foreign eggs are more cost-effective.
Buying eggs should be based on demand rather than superstition. Life has been good in recent years, and people are more pursuing local eggs. After all, local eggs seem to be much better than foreign eggs except that they are a little more expensive.
In fact, there are also many native eggs that are fed and raised, especially the eggs on the market. How can such a large amount be free-range soil eggs? They are all kept in captivity, and the same feed tastes not much better than foreign eggs, but they are sold at twice the price under the guise of local eggs.
Therefore, when buying eggs, you should polish your eyes and distinguish clearly. Of course, if you often scramble eggs, there is absolutely no need to consider local eggs, and you can also consider cheaper foreign eggs.
Earth eggs are expensive, which proves that they are nutritious? This is a large part of people's "thoughts". However, this is just a "misunderstanding"; From a nutritional point of view, compared with ordinary eggs, protein, cholesterol and carbohydrates in native eggs are slightly higher than those in ordinary eggs, but the contents of vitamin E, vitamin A, nicotinic acid and other nutrients are far lower than those in ordinary eggs.
Therefore, compared with the two, from the "nutritional point of view", there is actually not much difference. Don't be confused by advertisements, please believe the facts.
Of course, native eggs are indeed more delicious than ordinary eggs. This may be because native eggs eat worms and chicken feed during the breeding process, so that some "fat-soluble substances" will be transferred to eggs, and these "flavor-presenting substances" will beautify the taste of eggs.
In other words, although the earth eggs are expensive, they are not very nutritious. If you just want to eat more and better nutrition, you can buy "ordinary eggs".
Organic eggs is expensive, so the proof must be better?
A kind of "high-end egg with its own halo" is not as good as everyone thinks. In contrast, organic food is only stricter than ordinary food in the "production process". The chemicals added in the breeding process are strictly controlled, and the requirements for the site are more stringent. The production and processing steps have been "all-round certified" by government agencies.
However, from a nutritional point of view, organic eggs is no better than ordinary eggs, and there is no difference in safety compared with those "qualified ordinary eggs" that have been tested.
In other words, expensive eggs are not necessarily good, and "eggs that suit you" are "reliable eggs".
