That's not true. All chicken eggs contain the same cholesterol (and all
other nutritional values) relative to weight regardless how the chicken is
raised or fed. Egg flavor has only to do with freshnesss. Yolk color has to
do with colorant in their feed... yolk color has absolutely nothing to do
with nutritional value or taste. When you buy those expensive branded eggs
you are paying for advertizing, packaging, and ones own easily manipulated
mind. There is no way to make a chicken lay more or less nutritional eggs,
or have them taste differently... only the yolk color intensity can be
manipulated. The color of the egg shell indicates a different breed chicken
only, has no bearing on what's inside the egg. Oh, and egg shell
thickness/strength can also be manipulated to a slight degree.
