Pay attention to this date from now on.

For egg enthusiasts like me, there’s joy in cracking an egg, whether for a fluffy omelet, baking a cake, or making fried rice. While I occasionally buy eggs from the farmer’s market, most come from the supermarket in coded boxes. Understanding these codes became essential over time.

The three-digit code on the carton is the Julian date, indicating the day of the year the eggs were packed. For example, 001 means January 1st, and 365 means December 31st. There’s also a code starting with ‘P’ – the plant code, showing where the eggs were processed. This is crucial during recalls. During a salmonella outbreak years ago, I checked the plant code and Julian date to ensure my eggs were safe.

Eggs are safe up to 30 days from the packing date if stored correctly. I check the Julian date when I buy eggs, calculating when to use them for maximum freshness.
