Where is the best place to keep eggs in the fridge?

Keep eggs in their carton on an inside shelf, not in the door, where it's warmest.

  1. In the egg tray on the door
  2. Out of the carton in a bowl
  3. In their carton on an inside shelf ✔

Why: The door is the warmest spot in the fridge and warms up every time it opens. Keep eggs in their carton in the coldest part of the fridge, and raw eggs in the shell will keep 3 to 5 weeks.

Huh, didn't know that: Keep eggs in their carton in the coldest part of the fridge, and raw eggs in the shell will keep 3 to 5 weeks.

The dad joke
Why shouldn't you tell an egg a joke? Because it might crack up.
