What is the difference between white and brown eggs?

Answer by  bibiuser (85)

Simply put, brown eggs come from brown chickens, and white eggs come from white chickens. Brown eggs are no more healthier than white ones.

They have a slightly different taste. In general, brown eggs taste a little heartier, and they have bigger and deeper yellow yolks. They also tend to have somewhat thicker shells. In contrast, white eggs usually have smaller yolks, a little less flavor, and thinner shells. Most people, if served brown eggs, would not know the difference, though.

The difference between white and brown eggs are slight. One being the obvious, color. Another being the type of chichen producing the eggs.

There is no difference between white and brown eggs. The color of the outside shell is just different. I don't think it even matters what color the chicken that laid the egg was. The price for brown eggs shouldn't be more expensive than white eggs. They are the same except the color.

There is no difference it is all a marketing hype. For example whole grain, brown bread is indeed better for you. That is out in the public consciousness, so it would follow that a brown egg would be healthier than a white one. Not so, the nutrition is the same.
