Large White Eggs
While Eggland's Best successfully fortifies their feed to provide higher Vitamin D and E levels than generic eggs, the product fails the primary quality indicator of being pasture-raised. These eggs typically come from caged hens, lacking the environmental enrichment and natural forage (insects/greens) that define a high-quality yolk and lipid profile. At this price point, the value is poor compared to true pasture-raised options which offer superior animal welfare and nutrient density for a marginal cost increase.
