All eggs at Sprouts will be either Grade A or AA. Eggs are graded on both interior and exterior quality. The shell must be clean, unbroken, and practically normal. The air cell must not exceed 3/16 inch in depth (for Grade A) or 1/8 inch in depth (for Grade AA), may show unlimited movement and may be free or bubbly. The white must be clear and firm so that the yolk is fairly well defined when the egg is twirled before the candling light. The yolk must be practically free from apparent defects.

Organic
Sprouts eggs only come in one shape, but Sprouts has many options to choose from. How can you be sure you’re making an egg-ucated decision about the egg, size and grade?
These eggs meet specific requirements verified by a USDA-accredited certifying agent. Overall, organic operations must demonstrate that they are protecting natural resources, conserving biodiversity and using only approved substances. Organic eggs come from chickens treated with the same animal welfare standards as free-range and are given non-GMO feed.
Free-Range
This label is regulated by the USDA and indicates that the flock was provided shelter in a building, room or area with unlimited access to food, fresh water and continuous access to the outdoors during their production cycle. The outdoor area may or may not be fenced and/or covered with ne ing-like material.
Cage-Free
The flock was able to freely roam in a building, room or enclosed area with unlimited access to food and fresh water during their production cycle.
Pasteurized
This label indicates eggs were heated in a sanitary facility under the supervision of the USDA. In pasteurization, the liquid part of the egg is rapidly heated and held at a minimum required temperature for a specified amount of time. This destroys salmonella, but does not cook the eggs or affect color, flavor or nutritional value. By law, all liquid eggs must be pasteurized.
Omega-3 or DHA
These are from hens that have been fed a diet supplemented by a source of Omega-3 fa y aids (typically, flax seed).
No Added Hormones
A similar claim includes “Raised without Hormones.” Federal regulations have never permi ed hormones or steroids in poultry, pork or goat. NOTE: ALL EGGS MUST BE KEPT REFRIGERATED AND HANDLED WITH CARE.
