I've Found the Best Eggs on the Planet
And I'm sharing my find with you, dear Drive-Thru readers: Kress Apiary -- yes, the kindly honey seller at the Daley and Federal plaza farmers markets -- is selling grass-fed, sustainably raised eggs this year for $4.
I bought my first dozen a couple of weeks ago, and now I'm hooked. So fresh are these eggs that my first batch was flecked with bits of hay. So stable are the whites that when I cracked two eggs into a small frying pan, they barely touched. So orange are the yolks that ... well, just take a look at that picture, which is entirely unenhanced.
If you like eggs, you have a very, very good summer ahead of you.

grass-fed? chickens do not normally eat grass. the best eggs come from chickens that eat what they are supposed to eat - worms, bugs and seeds.
