Organic Whole Eggs

Organic whole eggs are laid by hens raised under organic farming standards, meaning they are fed organic feed and not given antibiotics or hormones. They contain the yolk and the white, both of which are used in food preparation. Eggs are a natural source of protein and fat.

Eggs are a versatile ingredient used for binding, leavening, emulsifying, and adding richness and flavor. They are commonly found in baked goods like cookies, cakes, and pastries, as well as in sauces, dressings, and breakfast items.

Eggs are a nutrient-dense food, providing protein, vitamins, and minerals. The US FDA considers eggs to be generally recognized as safe (GRAS). Dietary cholesterol from eggs has been a topic of discussion, but current research suggests that for most healthy individuals, dietary cholesterol has a smaller impact on blood cholesterol levels than saturated and trans fats. The WHO/IARC has not classified eggs as carcinogenic.
