[QUOTE="JoKalsbeek, post: 2214841, member: 401801"] Here in the Netherlands you have the "Beter Leven Keurmerk", which basically awards up to three stars for the kind of life the animal in question has/had. It's on egg cartons, milk bottles, packaged meats.... I used to buy free range, until I saw that organic had the full 3 stars. I do notice a difference in flavor and colour, and in my wallet... They're certainly more expensive, but the better flavor and knowing it comes from happy chickens makes it worth it for me. (I go through 15 to 30 eggs per week, thereabouts). Guess it's personal preference for the most part. In the US I'd be a little more concerned as it seems every kind of farm animal there gets genetically manipulated soy for feed, which ends up having an effect on the quality of the eggs, but in Europe...? Not that worried about it. [/QUOTE]
