“Are These Eggs Still Good?” A Common Kitchen Debate That Might Surprise You

If you’ve ever stood in front of the fridge, holding a carton of eggs and squinting at the expiration date, wondering, “Are these still safe to eat?” — you’re not alone.

For many older Americans, this small moment can stir up big emotions. Maybe it reminds you of the way your mother used to test eggs by smell. Or maybe it sparks a lighthearted disagreement between you and your spouse — one of you insisting, “They’re fine!” while the other threatens to throw the whole dozen out.

That very scenario recently played out in one couple’s kitchen, escalating from a mild difference of opinion to a full-blown debate over food safety. He claimed eggs could last weeks past their printed date. She wasn’t so sure. And neither could agree on who was right.
