Are brown eggs healthier than white? While the food industry encourages this consumer belief, according to the Egg Nutrition Center in Washington, D.C., one color egg is not more nutritious or more flavorful than another. Possibly brown eggs cost more because the chickens that produce them are costlier to maintain. Cultural differences have long dictated the use of brown or white eggs, for example brown are more popular in the United Kingdom and white in the United States. In our house, Pop prefers brown and I use white because they are cheaper (and I discern no difference in taste). However I do think the two together provide a lovely picture of contrast.
