they are greasy to the touch 3 quality is not so good as fresh eggs mr hunter said they can be boiled if one end is pierced with a pin they are not greasy if they have been properly pro cessed and said mr hunter although they cannot be sold in cartons marked fresh they are often better quality as only gradea eggs are stored at the optimum time of the year a produce handling firm said the
