Question

How long do eggs last?

Answer 1

Eggs are good for about 5 weeks in the refrigerator once you buy them.

As long as the eggs remain refrigerated the eggs can last up to 5 weeks in the refrigerator even when the expiration date has passed.

The eggs are not always bad just because they have expired as long as they are refrigerated they will last 5 weeks which is a little over a month.

You can also freeze eggs and they will last up to a year in the freezer but the shells will crack but that's not usually a problem when you get ready to cook the eggs.

Just crack the egg further and remove the egg shell and put the frozen egg into the pan to thaw for 10 minutes or so and then cook the eggs.

Answer 2

Eggs are usually good for up to 5 weeks in the refrigerator and eggs are usually good for a few weeks at room temperature.

Store bought eggs will last for up to 5 weeks in the refrigerator as long as they remain refrigerated.

That is for eggs that remain in the egg shell.

As long as the eggs remain in the egg shell they will last up to 5 weeks before they go bad.

It's best to eat the eggs within a few weeks of buying them for freshness but the eggs will remain safe to eat for up to 5 weeks after purchase.

If you open the eggs and remove them from the eggshell then they will only last for only 2 to 3 days.

You can scramble the eggs up then freeze the raw eggs that way they will last up to around 6 months.

Freezing the raw eggs once removed from the egg shell will help them last longer.
