Spice it up:

Many people stray from organic eggs because "they cost too much," instead they are proud when they find a great deal on cage free eggs or free range/ free roaming. These are NOT the same as certified organic eggs.
Cage free eggs do not have any standards or auditing procedures for food or living conditions. Hens are not in cages, but usually PACKED inside barns or warehouses without access to the outdoors. Free range/ free roaming eggs have no auditing procedures for food or living conditions. The birds are inside barns or warehouses and have outdoor access. However, there are no standards on the amount of outdoor space available and time allotted outside. Certified organic eggs aren't in cages and are required to have outdoor access. They are fed an organic, vegetarian diet without antibiotics and pesticides, as required and audited by the USDA. This means if they aren't fed the antibiotics and pesticides, NEITHER WILL YOU BE!
Organic eggs usually are about $3.90 per dozen, which comes to about 32¢ per egg. Which means a breakfast sandwich made at home with 2 organic eggs is less than $1.00, that is even cheaper than the drive thru! Bonus: organic eggs taste better. Enjoy your breakfast sandwich and let me know what you think.
