But at Coles, they're not sold in refrigerated sections. At least the ones I've been to in Melbourne.

Bought free range eggs at Coles yesterday. I still put them in the fridge when I get home out of habit; not sure why now. :)

I stopped refrigerating eggs, when i found out I can make better fried eggs if they're at room temperature. :)

"if you keep your eggs in the fridge, then you should let them come to room temperature before cooking – if you start with a cold egg, then you're more likely to end up overcooking the yolk trying to get the white to set."

Huh. Now here's news I can use!

Ah. Thanks! That explains so many failed fried eggs.. :)

I'm in Queensland. At the Coles I go to, they are definitely refrigerated. I have been to NSW ones where they aren't. Maybe in Queensland it is policy. That seems plausible.

I live on NSW Central Coast. Woolworths at Gosford has them in the fridge; five minutes down the road at Coles Wyoming, they are not refrigerated.

Perhaps because it’s hotter in Queensland
