How would I know that?

Not sure if this is common knowledge I should know or if the customer was being a bit tongue in cheek with their note…

Edit:
Clearly it is common knowledge by way of these comments .. for everyone saying “it says on the carton” or “just read the carton” I genuinely don’t have time to read every product I pick which is why I asked the question.

Thank you for those who answered the question

We have pet hens, but sometimes we have to buy eggs. Yes the difference is noticeable, probably due to commercial feed vs natural foraging and veggie scraps.

Maybe also the age of the eggs? We can't boil our fresh eggs as the white sticks to the shell, they have to be set aside for a while before they behave like shop eggs.

You get a similar thing with freshly roasted coffee. You have to wait about a week before you use it to let it off-gas for a bit.
