It\u2019s a store we trust: everything\u2019s fresh, the prices are fair, and we\u2019ve never had any real complaints. We grabbed a dozen eggs, as we do every week, and thought nothing of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But the next morning, while making breakfast, I cracked open an egg and noticed something odd.
