Prestigious publications such as Women's Choice, Men's Health, Prevention, and SELF have recognized the brand for having better taste, better nutrition and better eggs year after year, reaffirming the brand's spot as the country's top-selling egg. EB has also been the only egg certified by the American Vegetarian Association, and has been recognized by American Baby, Kiwi Magazine, Women's Health and Product of the Year – just to name a few!

The broad range of awards Eggland's Best has received is a testament to the strength of the brand and the variety of great products available to its consumers.
