If you read Internet blogs, you may believe there is a difference between brown and white eggs. All sorts of unsubstantiated claims are attached to brown ones. Some people insist the eggs simply taste better.

The biggest difference between brown and white eggs is the color. The Egg Nutrition Board reports there is no difference in taste or nutrition.

The eggs do come from different breeds of chickens. Rhode Island Reds and Plymouth Rocks are famous for browns.
