I have to answer the Brown eggs and White egg question!
I hear them on television all the time, their standard answer is: "Both are the same nutritionally".
While this may be true, I don't feel that they are answering the real question:

Brown eggs have a darker and richer tasting yolk than White eggs! I don't really care for fried eggs much myself, but when I do eat them, I much prefer the Brown eggs when available.

That, my friend, is the difference between White eggs and Brown eggs.

but what causes the difference in color?

Different breeds of chickens!

Nah. The brown ones are from chickens who lived a happier life in the tropics drinking margaritas and sun tanning all day.

Hypothetically speaking, not like I have a salad with one, how long does a hard boiled egg with a cracked shell last in the fridge? Assume also, for this hypothetical exercise, that it looks perfectly normal when sliced. Imagining this, I picture that the air indentation was larger than normal.

For the first time a couple weeks ago, I had those eggs that were half developed. I forget what it's called, but it was pretty good. The texture is like that of a big yolk. I picked a pice of bone from the mush in my mouth. Mmmm...

HERE we go! Balut

'Good for what?' is the question.

You mean worse than normal right? Hard boiled eggs smell pretty bad even when they are right out of the pot.

I kept one for a year and half in the fridge once. Was ultimately forced to dispose of old Charlie Brown.

Left over Easter egg. It has been in the fridge since Sunday afternoon. Its blue with little stick-on ducks if that matters.

I kept some left over Easter eggs for a decade or more. Took them to a radio stunt where some local DJ's were throwing items off the roof of a local restaurant. It started when they were protesting their outdated, broken down equipment by throwing a piece of it off the roof of the station every day and grew from there.

When the eggs hit, you could almost SEE the smell.
