Until when are eggs basicly young enough to eat.
The eggs in my supermarket are mostly more than 10 days old. Can I buy them to eat raw? Or should I look somewhere else ?

don't mean to nag, but there are plenty dictionaries online you know
But anyway, the Dutch translation is something like "bol". Thus in this sentence, it means when the yolks remains intact; convex (and so the egg yolk sack will not easily break/tear). A fresh yolk will not tear/break when you roll it over your hands. And when you want to make a small incision, the sack will first indent (indeuken in Dutch) before it the knife perforates it.
From the free acne book: Fresh egg yolk is convex and firm- Not-so-fresh egg white is watery instead of jelly-like.

From a different thread:

Since I buy eggs per week and am used to the bacteria, freshness isn't an issue for me.djkvan wrote:I store the eggs in the fridge, but have been reading the acne book and it says to avoid this if possible. Why?
