Why aren't eggs kept refrigerated in supermarkets, or at any point when their popped out until we take them home?

They only stay on the shelves for 1-2 days. When you get them home, they're more likely to last for a week, hence need refrigeration. If you eat them all straight away, you could keep them out. Fridge keeps them a bit fresher for longer.

I don't refrigerate raw eggs at home, never had an issue with them going off before the use by date.

I get eggs in bulk and have done for about a year, about 100 at a time. Usually use them over a couple of weeks. I never refrigerate them and (so far) they have all been fine.

If you've boiled them for like 7 minutes and kept them cool afterwards. I dont see how they could spawn deadly botulism's after 5 days.

Over two weeks might be chancing it, but i would say that for anything pre-cooked and left lying about.

Yes I know the answer to why you shouldn't refrigerate eggs but i forgot what it was arghgh but anyway her not supposed too.apparently the worst invention was the egg shelve in the door of your fridge.
