The temperature trap: Why your prime egg storage spot is actually a safety risk

Storing eggs in the refrigerator door is a common mistake that compromises their safety and longevity. Constant temperature fluctuations in the door area can lead to condensation, allowing bacteria to penetrate the shell. For optimal freshness and safety, keep eggs in their original carton in the cooler, more stable middle or lower sections of the fridge.
