Do eggs REALLY go bad (spoiled)??

Woke up just a bit ago and thinking of making breakfast for the wifey - she's still asleep.
Found full carton of eggs but says BEST IF USED BY 3/28..

Do eggs go bad like that?? Will I stink up the room later?
Could I bust out a dutch oven on HER later and be successful???

Or will I poison us and declare war on old dairy?

expiration dates are there for a reason.

especially with eggs... i wouldn't eat them.

Tip: Put and egg into a cup or glass of water. If it sinks, it's good, if it floats, it's bad.

you'll get salmonella rushdie.

Anything that has an expiry date, which is basically anything, I won't eat it even if it's one day past it's due date.

don't eat them.

Try them and find out! It's the scientific way.

i get so scared from expiration dates that i won't eat or drink anything if it's past its "sale by" date

I like the way you think!
If it was for me, fuck it..I'd do it just to see wud up...(yeah, we guys are stupid like that girls)
but since it's for the wifey...SURVEY SAYS:

NAY!!


Even though I will try PVDAngel's scientific way just to see if they float or not..that sounds interesting.

I'll make her pancakes instead with OJ and home fries

The stench of a rotten egg is one you never forget. I can still remember that summer camp. Throw that shit out, and without breaking them

I'm done with breakfast...she's up and surprised.
No spoiled eggs!! HUZZAH!!

However...PVDAngel's idea is still stuck on my head..
I think I will test them and record the results on video as proof that eggs DO go spoiled!

cue: your wife getting a crazy chicken disease in 1-30 days

I'm not saying it always works, but most of the time it should. But I agree with the others, if they've been out of date for a while, you're best just throwing them out.

I've done the egg + water trick. It works.

I've eaten eggs a week past their date and was fine. A month is a bit much though

Eggs always go longer than whats on the box:

quote:

The "sell by" or "best if used by" or "exp (date)" are all expressions used by the industry in various states, and are used by the retailer to assure you of freshness. The egg will continue to be fresh for at least another 2-3 weeks if it has been refrigerated from the time packed until used at 45 degrees F. or lower. As the egg ages, it does lose some of its qualities, so if you were baking a cake or whipping meringue, your cake might not rise as high as expected, and you might not get the volume of meringue you would expect, so for baking purposes it is better to use a fresher egg.
