In today’s episode, I’ll be helping you decide what eggs to buy for your family.
Eggs are a great example of “nutritional upgrade”: an easy change you can make to pack more nutrition into the foods that you’re feeding your family without any extra work. I also want to help take the overwhelm out of egg shopping when you’re staring at the case full of options.
I’ll cover:
- What the different egg labels mean
- Why buying
high quality eggs is so important - How to decide which eggs are right for your family based on the balance of cost and nutrition
How to Choose the Healthiest Eggs to Buy for your Family
I can’t be the only one who’s stood in the grocery store staring at a shelf of egg options and wondering “how the heck am I supposed to pick which eggs to buy?”.
And after years of sorting through the information and details of eggs, I have gathered some data points that have helped me to make these decisions. And you can too!
But first, why should you care? Here are a few reasons:
- Eggs are a great, affordable source of complete protein but not all eggs are created equally
- You likely have a grocery budget and want to make the most of it
- Deciding which eggs to buy EVERY time you go to the grocery store is a huge waste of time that you probably don’t have – making a decision once and for all of which eggs you’re going to buy (and feel good about) means you don’t
ever have to make that decision again
